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

Phenylacetylglutamine (PAGln) and phenylacetylglycine (PAGly) are small molecules derived from the metabolism of phenylalanine by gut microbiota. Elevated levels of PAGln and PAGly in serum have been associated with increased risks for cardiovascular diseases. It has been suggested that PAGln and PAGly reduce cardiac contraction by blunting the adrenergic response during sympathetic stimulation. However, little is known about whether the effect of PAGln and PAGly on the heart function is associated with an alteration of intracellular Ca
