Experimental Animal Models of Phenylketonuria: Pros and Cons.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a common inherited metabolic disorder characterised by impaired metabolism of the amino acid phenylalanine. The disease results from a mutation in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) enzyme, which converts phenylalanine (Phe) into tyrosine (Tyr). The absence or inactivity of this enzyme results in significantly elevated levels of Phe in the blood, which can lead to severe neurological conditions, including intellectual disability, epilepsy, and other developmental disorders. Since its discovery, animal models have played a crucial role for understanding the pathophysiology of PKU, as well as providing recognisable proof of targets and surveying new remedial specialists and in vivo medicines. In the present study, we conducted a comprehensive review of the experimental and non-experimental animal models employed for phenylketonuria and its associated complications.
