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

Protein-mediated fatty acid uptake and intracellular fatty acid activation are key steps in fatty acid metabolism in muscle. We have examined (a) the abundance of fatty acid translocase (FAT/CD36) mRNA (a fatty acid transporter) and long-chain acyl CoA synthetase (FACS1) mRNA in metabolically heterogeneous muscles (soleus (SOL), red (RG) and white gastrocnemius (WG)), and (b) whether FAT/CD36 and FACS1 mRNAs were coordinately up-regulated in red (RTA) and white tibialis muscles (WTA) that had been chronically stimulated for varying periods of time (0.25, 1, 6 and 24 h/day) for 7 days. FAT/CD36 mRNA and FACS1 mRNA abundance were scaled with (a) the oxidative capacity of muscle (SOL > RG > WG) (p < 0.05), (b) the rates of fatty acid oxidation in red and white muscles, and (c) fatty acid uptake by sarcolemmal vesicles, derived from red and white muscles. In chronically stimulated muscles (RTA and WTA), FAT/CD36 mRNA and FACS1 mRNA were up-regulated in relation to the quantity of muscle contractile activity (p < 0.05). FAT/CD36 mRNA and FACS1 mRNA up-regulation was highly correlated (r = 0.98). The coordinated expression of FAT/CD36 and FACS is likely a functional adaptive response to facilitate a greater rate of fatty acid activation in response to a greater rate of fatty acid transport, either among different types of muscles or in muscles in which capacity for fatty acid metabolism has been enhanced.
