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

The precise mechanisms underlying the differential function and cardiometabolic risk of white adipose tissue (WAT) remain unclear. Visceral adipose tissue (VWAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SCWAT) have different metabolic functions that seem to be ascribed to their different intrinsic expansion capacities. Here we have hypothesized that the WAT characteristics are determined by the resident adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) found in the different WAT depots. Therefore, our objective has been to investigate adipogenesis in anatomically distinct fat depots. ASCs from five different WAT depots were characterized in both healthy lean and diabetic obese rats, showing significant differences in expression of some of genes governing the stemness and the earlier adipogenic differentiation steps. Notch-target genes [Hes (hairy and enhancer of split) and Hey (hairy/enhancer of split related with YRPW motif) families] were upregulated in ASCs derived from visceral depots. Upon adipogenic differentiation, adipocyte cell markers were downregulated in ASCs from VWAT in comparison to ASCs from SCWAT, revealing a lower adipogenic capacity in ASCs of visceral origin than in those of SCWAT in accordance with the differential activation of Notch signaling. Notch upregulation by its activator phenethyl isothiocyanate attenuated the adipogenic differentiation of ASCs from SCWAT whereas Notch inhibition by N-[N-(3,5-difluorophenacetyl-L-alanyl)]-S-phenylglycine t-butyl ester (DAPT) increased the adipogenic differentiation of ASCs from visceral origin. In conclusion, the differential activation of Notch in ASCs is the origin of the different intrinsic WAT expansion capacities that contribute to the regional variations in WAT homeostasis and to its associated cardiometabolic risk.
