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

Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a redox-active cofactor that exists in the oxidized and reduced forms, with the reduced species being particularly significant for biological activity. However, accurate quantification of the reduced form in complex matrices remains technically challenging due to its instability, low solubility, and high susceptibility to atmospheric oxidation. A robust and versatile high-performance liquid chromatography method featuring two complementary analytical modes was established in this study to overcome these limitations. The "Native mode" uses a strongly acidic eluent to suppress oxidation during analysis, enabling simultaneous quantification of both redox forms and determination of their native distribution. Conversely, the "Total mode" measures the total PQQ after pretreatment with ascorbic acid and γ-cyclodextrin, which converts PQQ species to a stabilized reduced form and improves solubility. Method validation demonstrated excellent linearity (R
