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

An intermediate in the fatty acid biosynthetic pathway, malonyl-coenzyme A (CoA), has emerged as a major regulator of energy homeostasis not only in peripheral metabolic tissues but also in regions of the central nervous system that control satiety and energy expenditure. Fluctuations in hypothalamic malonyl-CoA lead to changes in food intake and peripheral energy expenditure in a manner consistent with an anorexigenic signaling intermediate. Hypothalamic malonyl-CoA is regulated by nutritional and endocrine cues including glucose and leptin, respectively. That malonyl-CoA is an essential component in the energy homeostatic signaling system of the hypothalamus is supported by convergence of physiological, pharmacological, and genetic evidence. This review will focus on evidence implicating malonyl-CoA as a central player in the control of body weight and adiposity as well as clues to the molecular mechanism by which carbon flux through the fatty acid biosynthetic pathway is linked to the neural control of energy balance.
