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

Iron-bound tetrapyrroles (hemes) are essential for the regulation of cellular functions and bioenergetics. The processes of heme biosynthesis, transport, and degradation are responsible for the supply of heme in mitochondria and its insertion into other downstream proteins. What remains unresolved is how these processes interconnect and the wider implications for the cell in the restoration of homeostasis when heme concentrations change. We demonstrate a wide-ranging and coordinated response to changes in intracellular heme in HEK293 cells through a network of complementary mechanisms that extend well beyond the direct regulation of heme biosynthesis and degradation. These responses connect changes in heme homeostasis to mitochondrial function, including core metabolic processes such as the tricarboxylic acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation, as well as to enzymes involved in the control and storage of iron. Our findings demonstrate far-reaching consequences to perturbations of heme homeostasis and provide insights into the complexity of the cellular hemome.
