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 lipid-binding protein (LBP) family is conserved from Caenorhabditis elegans to mammals and essential for fatty acid homeostasis. RNAi-mediated knockdown of nine C. elegans lbp family members revealed that lbp-5 regulates fat accumulation. C. elegans LBP-5 bound directly to various fatty acids with varying affinities. lbp-5 expression in nhr-49(nr2041) worms was much lower than in N2 worms. Nhr-49 transcriptional activity also decreased with lbp-5 deletion, suggesting that they may work together as functional partners in fat metabolism. In support of this notion, LBP-5 translocated into nuclei, where it appeared to influence C. elegans NHR-49 target genes involved in energy metabolism. Interestingly, LBP-5 is required for stearic acid-induced transcription of NHR-49 target genes. Thus, this knowledge could help identify therapeutic targets to treat obesity and diseases associated with nematode-host interactions.
