1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Chrysosplenetin, a polymethoxy flavonol purified in our laboratory from the waste products generated during the industrial extraction of artemisinin, has been previously demonstrated to be a potential inhibitor of artemisinin resistance. Based on NMR-untargeted metabolomics, one of its hypothesized mechanisms of action is associated with the regulation of amino acid metabolism. In this study, we further quantified the key amino acids using LC-MS/MS targeted metabolomics and screened out the perturbed metabolic pathway network, which was characterized by tissue-specific differences. As a result, among the commonly and uniquely altered metabolites, increased levels of phenylalanine, tryptophan, and isoleucine were detected in the serum and various organs of the resistant groups. Interestingly, while the individual use of chrysosplenetin or artemisinin elevated the contents of these amino acids, their combination led to a significant down-regulation of these amino acids in the serum and intestines. Therefore, chrysosplenetin has the potential to act as a restorer of amino acid metabolism homeostasis, which is associated with artemisinin resistance in Plasmodium berghei K173.
