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

aims/hypothesisApolipoprotein AV (apoAV) is a recently discovered apolipoprotein with a triglyceride-lowering effect in genetically modified mice. Transcription of the human gene encoding apoAV (APOA5) is suppressed by insulin and stimulated by fibrates. Our goal was to study the expression of Apoa5, in comparison with Apoa4 and Apoc3, in hypertriglyceridaemic, obese and insulin-resistant Zucker rats receiving the insulin sensitiser rosiglitazone and/or a fish oil diet to lower triglycerides.

methodsHepatic Apoa5, Apoa4 and Apo3 mRNA and liver and plasma apoAV were measured in lean and obese Zucker rats receiving rosiglitazone while on a coconut oil or fish oil diet.

resultsBasal hepatic Apoa5 expression was similar in obese and lean Zucker rats. Unexpectedly, obese Zucker rats tended to have higher plasma apoAV levels despite their hypertriglyceridaemic state. Both rosiglitazone and the fish oil diet significantly increased Apoa5 mRNA, by about 70%, but tended to lower liver and plasma apoAV. Rosiglitazone had no effect on Apoa5 mRNA in cultured rat hepatocytes. No intact PPAR (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor) response element was identified in the rat Apoa5 promoter. CONCLUSIONS/

interpretationOur data indicate that apoAV does not contribute to the hypertriglyceridaemia of obese Zucker rats or to the hypolipidaemic effect of rosiglitazone or a fish oil diet. The divergent changes of Apoa5 mRNA and apoAV levels suggest co- or post-translational regulation. The increase in Apoa5 mRNA induced by rosiglitazone is not directly mediated by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma.
