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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesMitochondrial dysfunction is a major cause of brain injury in patients with primary mitochondrial disease. New mitochondrial therapeutics and non-invasive tools for efficacy monitoring are urgently needed. To these ends, succinate prodrug NV354 (methyl 3-[(2-acetylaminoethylthio)carbonyl]propionate) and diffuse optical techniques are promising. In this proof-of-concept study, we characterize NV354's effects on microdialysis metrics of cerebral metabolism in a swine model of mitochondrial dysfunction and assess the associations of diffuse optical metrics with mitochondrial dysfunction and metabolic improvement.

methodsOne-month-old swine received a four-hour co-infusion of rotenone with either the succinate prodrug NV354 (

resultsInterstitial lactate continually increased in the placebo group (

conclusionsMicrodialysis results suggest that NV354 treatment can increase oxygen metabolism in large animals with mitochondrial dysfunction. The optical oxCCO metric was also sensitive to metabolic changes induced by rotenone and NV354 administration.
