Isoprenoid is a perfect fit for fat factor.
Article in The Biochemical journal, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
In humans, there are 48 members of the superfamily of nuclear receptors. These ligand-activated transcription factors help to integrate our growth, reproduction and metabolism via environmental, nutritional and intrinsic cues. It is therefore not surprising that nuclear receptors are commonly used as drug targets. However, perhaps in the rush to discover new drugs that target these receptors, we sometimes lose sight of their 'real' physiological ligands. In this issue of the Biochemical Journal Goto et al. present evidence that the isoprenoid FPP (farnesyl pyrophosphate) may be a bona fide ligand for the master controller of adipocyte differentiation PPARγ (peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor γ). This work has wide-ranging implications not only for obesity and diabetes, but also for osteoporosis and the control of circadian rhythms in which PPARγ also plays an important role.
