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 hypothalamus integrates energy balance information from the periphery using different neuronal subtypes within each of the hypothalamic areas. However, the effects of prandial state on global mRNA, microRNA and long noncoding (lnc) RNA expression within the whole hypothalamus are largely unknown. In this study, mice were given either a 24-h fast, or ad libitum access to food. RNA samples were analyzed by microarray, and then a subset was confirmed using quantitative real-time PCR (QPCR). A total of 540 mRNAs were either up- or down-regulated with food deprivation. Since gene ontology enrichment analyses identified several categories of mRNAs related to cell cycle processes, ten cell-cycle-related genes were further analyzed using QPCR with six confirmed to be significantly up-regulated and one down-regulated in response to 24-h fasting. While 22 independent microRNAs were differentially expressed by microarray, secondary analysis by QPCR failed to confirm significant changes with fasting. There were 622 lncRNAs identified as differentially expressed, and of three tested by QPCR, two were confirmed. Overall, this is the first time that expression of hypothalamic lncRNAs has been shown to be responsive to food deprivation. In addition, this study is the first to identify a list of lncRNAs with high expression in RNA extracted from hypothalamus. Individual contributions from specific miRNA, lncRNA and mRNAs to the food deprivation response can now be further studied at the physiological and biochemical levels.
