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

Previous studies with cardiac myocytes from homozygous heart-type fatty acid (FA)-binding protein (H-FABP) -/- mice have indicated that this intracellular receptor protein for long-chain FA is involved in the cellular uptake of these substrates. Based on the knowledge that muscle FA uptake is a process highly sensitive to regulation by hormonal and mechanical stimuli, we studied whether H-FABP would play a role in this regulation. A suitable model system to answer this question is provided by H-FABP +/- mice, because in hindlimb muscles the content of H-FABP was measured to be 34% compared to wild-type mice. In these H-FABP +/- skeletal muscles, just as in H-FABP -/- muscles, contents of FA transporters, i.e., 43-kDa FABPpm and 88-kDa FAT/CD36, were similar compared to wild-type muscles, excluding possible compensatory mechanisms at the sarcolemmal level. Palmitate uptake rates were measured in giant vesicles prepared from hindlimb muscles of H-FABP -/-, H-FABP +/-, and H-FABP +/+ mice. For comparison, giant vesicles were isolated from liver, the tissue of which expresses a distinct type of FABP (i.e., L-FABP). Whereas in H-FABP -/- skeletal muscle FA uptake was reduced by 42-45%, FA uptake by H-FABP +/- skeletal muscle was not different from that in wild-type mice. In contrast, in liver from H-FABP -/- and from H-FABP +/- mice, FA uptake was not altered compared to wild-type animals, indicating that changes in FA uptake are restricted to H-FABP expressing tissues. It is concluded that H-FABP plays an important, yet merely permissive, role in FA uptake into muscle tissues.
