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

Metabolites, lipids, and glycans are fundamental but interconnected classes of biomolecules that form the basis of the metabolic network. These molecules are dynamically channeled through multiple pathways that govern cellular physiology and pathology. Here, we present a framework for the simultaneous spatial analysis of the metabolome, lipidome, and glycome from a single tissue section using mass spectrometry imaging. This workflow integrates a computational platform, the Spatial Augmented Multiomics Interface (Sami), which enables multiomics integration, high-dimensional clustering, spatial anatomical mapping of matched molecular features, and metabolic pathway enrichment. To demonstrate the utility of this approach, we applied Sami to evaluate metabolic diversity across distinct brain regions and to compare wild-type and Ps19 Alzheimer's disease (AD) mouse models. Our findings reveal region-specific metabolic demands in the normal brain and highlight metabolic dysregulation in the Ps19 model, providing insights into the biochemical alterations associated with neurodegeneration.
