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

Recent years have seen an impetus in the study for central mechanisms regulating energy balance, and caloric intake possibly as a response to the obesity pandemic. This renewed interest as well as drastic improvements in the tools that are now currently available to neuroscientists, has yielded a great deal of insight into the mechanisms by which the brain regulates metabolic function, and volitional aspects of feeding in response to metabolic signals like leptin, insulin and ghrelin. Among these mechanisms are the complex intracellular signals elicited by these hormones in neurons. Moreover, these signals produce and modulate the metabolism of the cell at the level of the mitochondria. Finally, these signals promote plastic changes that alter the synaptic circuitry in a number of circuits and ultimately affect cellular, physiological and behavioral responses in defense of energy homeostasis. These mechanisms are surveyed in this review.
