Fatty acid binding profile of the liver X receptor α.
Article in Journal of lipid research, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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.
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
Liver X receptor (LXR)α is a nuclear receptor that responds to oxysterols and cholesterol overload by stimulating cholesterol efflux, transport, conversion to bile acids, and excretion. LXRα binds to and is regulated by synthetic (T-0901317, GW3695) and endogenous (oxysterols) ligands. LXRα activity is also modulated by FAs, but the ligand binding specificity of FA and acyl-CoA derivatives for LXRα remains unknown. We investigated whether LXRα binds FA or FA acyl-CoA with affinities that mimic in vivo concentrations, examined the effect of FA chain length and the degree of unsaturation on binding, and investigated whether FAs regulate LXRα activation. Saturated medium-chain FA (MCFA) displayed binding affinities in the low nanomolar concentration range, while long-chain fatty acyl-CoA did not bind or bound weakly to LXRα. Circular dichroic spectra and computational docking experiments confirmed that MCFA bound to the LXRα ligand binding pocket similar to the known synthetic agonist of LXRα (T0901317), but with limited change to the conformation of the receptor. Transactivation assays showed that MCFA activated LXRα, whereas long-chain FA caused no effect. Our results suggest that LXRα functions as a receptor for saturated FA or acyl-CoA of C
