Metabolomic analysis of synovial fluid from healthy and pathological equine joints and tendon sheaths using high-resolution
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: Joint and tendon sheath diseases are a major cause of lameness and reduced performance in horses. Synovial fluid composition changes in response to pathological processes and metabolomic profiling offers a promising approach to detect these alterations. While equine joint metabolomics has been explored, little is known about the metabolomic profile of tendon sheaths. This study aimed to characterize and compare the synovial fluid metabolomic profiles of healthy and pathological joints and tendon sheaths in horses using high-resolution Methods: Synovial fluid samples were collected from healthy joints and tendon sheaths of routinely slaughtered animals, and from pathological joints and tendon sheaths from owned athletic horses affected by inflammatory or degenerative conditions. The samples were analyzed using Results: The metabolomic analysis of equine synovial fluid identified amino acids, organic acids, glucose isomers, and other metabolites. No significant differences were observed in the metabolic profiles of synovial fluid from healthy joints and tendon sheaths (PCA: R Discussion: Metabolomic profiling by
