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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesThe recently identified adipocytokine C1QTNF5 (encodes for CTRP5) has been demonstrated to inhibit pro-metabolic insulin signaling in adipocytes. We hypothesized that adipocyte C1QTNF5 expression in subcutaneous (sc) adipose tissue (AT) would correlate with the degree of obesity, systemic CTRP5 serum levels, and early AT and metabolic dysfunction in children. SUBJECTS/

methodsSc AT samples were obtained from 33 healthy Caucasian lean children aged 10.06±4.84 years and 42 overweight and obese children aged 13.34±3.12 years. C1QTNF5 expression in sc AT as well as in investigated cell lines was assessed by quantitative real-time PCR. Systemic CTRP5 levels were assessed by ELISA.

resultsC1QTNF5 expression in sc adipocytes increased with body mass index (BMI) standard deviation score (SDS; R=0.48, P<0.001), body fat percentage (R=0.4, P=0.004), adipocyte number (R=0.69, P<0.001) and systemic CTRP5 serum levels (R=0.28, P=0.025) whereas expression in the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) was inversely correlated with BMI SDS (R=-0.24, P=0.04). Multiple regression analysis confirmed that BMI SDS was the strongest independent predictor for C1QTNF5 expression in sc adipocytes. SVF C1QTNF5 levels strongly correlated with SVF CD31 expression (R=0.54, P<0.001) indicating expression by endothelial cells. Primary human endothelial cells demonstrated stronger expression compared with human Simpson-Golahbi-Behmel syndrome pre-adipocytes and adipocytes. Adipocyte C1QTNF5 expression levels were BMI-dependently related to fasting insulin (R=0.3, P=0.03) and leptin serum levels (R=0.5, P<0.001). Sc AT samples containing crown-like structures (CLS) demonstrated increased adipocyte C1QTNF5 expression compared to CLS-negative samples (P=0.03). Functionally, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α caused a fourfold induction of C1QTNF5 in human adipocytes (P<0.001) and a 50% reduction in primary human endothelial cells (P<0.001).

conclusionsIn children adipocyte C1QTNF5 expression is already strongly related to the degree of obesity and is associated with obesity-related AT alterations, systemic CTRP5 serum levels as well as circulating markers of metabolic disease and is positively regulated by TNFα in vitro.
