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

D-Amino acid oxidase activity was demonstrated in peroxisomes of rat liver using unfixed cryostat sections and a histochemical technique using cerium ions as capture reagent for hydrogen peroxide and diaminobenzidine, cobalt ions and exogenous hydrogen peroxide to visualize the final reaction product for light microscopical analysis. Cytophotometric analysis of liver sections revealed similar zero-order reaction velocities of D-amino acid oxidase with activity twice as high in periportal areas as in pericentral areas of liver lobuli when using either D-proline or D,L-thiazolidine-2-carboxylic acid as substrates. On the other hand, a 4-5 times higher KM value was found for D-proline than for D,L-thiazolidine-2-carboxylic acid. The KM values in periportal and pericentral areas were similar for each substrate. These findings support the suggestion that the physiological substrate for D-amino acid oxidase may be D,L-thiazolidine-2-carboxylic acid, the adduct of cysteamine and glyoxylic acid. D-Amino acid oxidase may play a role in vivo in the production of oxalate which may participate in metabolic control processes as an intracellular messenger molecule.
