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

White adipose tissue (WAT) secretes adipokines, which critically regulate lipid metabolism. The present study investigated the effects of alcohol on adipokines and the mechanistic link between adipokine dysregulation and alcoholic fatty liver disease. Mice were fed alcohol for 2, 4, or 8 weeks to document changes in adipokines over time. Alcohol exposure reduced WAT mass and body weight in association with hepatic lipid accumulation. The plasma adiponectin concentration was increased at 2 weeks, but declined to normal at 4 and 8 weeks. Alcohol exposure suppressed leptin gene expression in WAT and reduced the plasma leptin concentration at all times measured. There is a highly positive correlation between plasma leptin concentration and WAT mass or body weight. To determine whether leptin deficiency mediates alcohol-induced hepatic lipid dyshomeostasis, mice were fed alcohol for 8 weeks with or without leptin administration for the last 2 weeks. Leptin administration normalized the plasma leptin concentration and reversed alcoholic fatty liver. Alcohol-perturbed genes involved in fatty acid β-oxidation, very low-density lipoprotein secretion, and transcriptional regulation were attenuated by leptin. Leptin also normalized alcohol-reduced phosphorylation levels of signal transducer Stat3 and adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase. These data demonstrated for the first time that leptin deficiency in association with WAT mass reduction contributes to the pathogenesis of alcoholic fatty liver disease.
