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

Long chain fatty acid uptake across the plasma membrane occurs, in part, via a protein-mediated process involving a number of fatty acid binding proteins known as fatty acid transporters. A critical step in furthering the understandings of fatty acid transport was the discovery that giant vesicles, prepared from tissues such as muscle and heart, provided a suitable system for measuring fatty acid uptake. These vesicles are large (10-15 microm diameter), are oriented fully right side out, and contain cytosolic FABP in the lumen, which acts as a fatty acid sink, while none of the fatty acid taken up is metabolized or associated with the plasma membrane. The key fatty acid transporters FAT/CD36 and FABPpm are expressed in muscle and heart and their plasma membrane content is positively correlated with rates of fatty acid transport. These transporters are regulated acutely (within minutes) and chronically (days). For instance, both muscle contraction and insulin can translocate FAT/CD36 from an intracellular pool to the plasma membrane, thereby increasing fatty acid transport. With obesity, fatty acid transport is increased along with a concomitant increase in plasmalemmal FAT/CD36 (heart, muscle) and FABPpm (heart only), but without change in the expression of these transporters. This latter observation suggests that some of the fatty acid transporters are permanently relocated to the plasma membrane. In other studies it also appears that fatty acid transport rates are altered in a reciprocal manner to glucose transport. Since disorders in lipid metabolism appear to be an important factor contributing to the etiology of a number of common human diseases such as diabetes and obesity, our evidence that protein-mediated fatty acid transport is a key step in lipid metabolism allows the speculation that malfunctioning of the fatty acid transport process could be a common critical factor in the pathogenesis of these diseases.
