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

Amylin is a pancreas-derived neuropeptide that acts in the central nervous system (CNS) to reduce food intake. Much of the literature describing the anorectic effects of amylin are focused on amylin's actions in the area postrema, a hindbrain circumventricular structure. Although the area postrema is certainly an important site that mediates the intake-suppressive effects of amylin, several pieces of evidence indicate that amylin may also promote negative energy balance through action in additional CNS nuclei, including hypothalamic and mesolimbic structures. Therefore, this review highlights the distributed neural network mediating the feeding effects of amylin signaling with special attention being devoted to the recent discovery that the ventral tegmental area is physiologically relevant for amylin-mediated control of feeding. The production of amylin by alternative, extra-pancreatic sources and its potential relevance to food intake regulation is also considered. Finally, the utility of amylin and amylin-like compounds as a component of combination pharmacotherapies for the treatment of obesity is discussed.
