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

Incubation of rat brown adipocytes with noradrenaline in the presence of insulin and palmitate caused a decrease in the rate of triacylglycerol synthesis as measured by [U-14C]glucose incorporation into acylglycerol glycerol. Concomitantly, the ratio of [1-14C]palmitate oxidized to CO2 to that esterified was increased. This alteration in the rate of triacylglycerol synthesis by noradrenaline was not observed when fatty acid oxidation was inhibited by etomoxir. Noradrenaline did not cause any acute inactivation of enzymes of the triacylglycerol-synthesis pathway. It is suggested that the decrease in triacylglycerol synthesis seen with noradrenaline is secondary to activation of fatty acid oxidation.
