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

Fat depots of different localization vary in their biological/metabolic function. We recently provided evidence for different regulation of lipolysis between perigonadal and mesenteric adipocytes; in particular insulin-induced suppression of lipolysis was significantly higher in perigonadal compared with mesenteric adipocytes in chow-fed mice. Moreover, insulin's anti-lipolytic effect was maintained in mesenteric but lost in perigonadal adipocytes under high fat diet (HFD). Herein, we expanded our previous study and included inguinal (subcutaneous) adipocytes in our analysis. When compared with perigonadal adipocytes, inguinal adipocytes are equally sensitive to insulin's anti-lipolytic effect under chow diet. However, they remain insulin-sensitive under HFD. Moreover, insulin-stimulated glucose incorporation was equally blunted in adipocytes of all three depots in HFD-fed mice. In conclusion, regulation of insulin sensitivity in murine adipocytes is diet-, depot- and function-dependent.
