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

Growing evidence suggests that the brain, in particular the hypothalamus, directly senses hormones and nutrients to initiate feeding behavior and metabolic responses in the control of energy homeostasis. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this important process have remained largely unknown. Our study provides the evidence for the role of Abelson helper integration site 1 (Ahi1) protein as a sensor of insulin signaling in the hypothalamus. We found that fasting increased the expression of hypothalamic Ahi1 which was accompanied by lower levels of circulating insulin compared with satiated mice, while re-feeding decreased the expression of hypothalamic Ahi1 which was accompanied by higher levels of circulating insulin. We also found the up-regulated expression of hypothalamic Ahi1 in high-fat induced obese mice, db/db mice, and streptozotocin induced diabetic mice. In addition, we demonstrated that insulin could decrease the expression of Ahi1 in neuroblastoma cell line N18TG2. Taken together, our results indicate that hypothalamic Ahi1 functions as a sensor of insulin signaling.
