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

Interactions of leptin and leptin receptors play crucial roles during animal development and regulation of appetite and energy balance. In this study we analyzed expression pattern of a zebrafish leptin receptor gene in both developing and adult zebrafish using in situ hybridization and Q-PCR methods. Zebrafish leptin receptor message (lepr) was detected in all embryonic and larval stages examined, and in adult zebrafish. In embryonic zebrafish, lepr was mainly expressed in the notochord. As development proceeded, lepr expression in the notochord decreased, while its expression in several other tissues, including the trunk muscles and gut, became evident. In both larval and adult brains, large lepr expressing cells were detected in similar regions of the hindbrain. In adult zebrafish, lepr expression was also observed in several other brain regions including the hypothalamic lateral tuberal nucleus, the fish homolog of the arcuate nucleus. Q-PCR experiments confirmed lepr expression in the adult fish brain, and also showed lepr expression in several adult tissues including liver, muscle and gonads. Our results showed that lepr expression was both spatially and temporally regulated.
