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

The control of fatty acid translocation across the mitochondrial membrane is mediated by the carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) system. Modulation of its functionality has simultaneous effects on fatty acid and glucose metabolism. This encourages use of the CPT system as drug target for reduction of gluconeogenesis and restoration of lipid homeostasis, which are beneficial in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. Recently, crystal structures of CPT-2 were determined in uninhibited forms and in complexes with inhibitory substrate-analogs with anti-diabetic properties in animal models and in clinical studies. The CPT-2 crystal structures have advanced understanding of CPT structure-function relationships and will facilitate discovery of novel inhibitors by structure-based drug design. However, a number of unresolved questions regarding the biochemistry and pharmacology of CPT enzymes remain and are addressed in this review.
