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

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) is a major type of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) that act as endocrine-disrupting chemicals. In the current study, we examined the mechanism underlying the effect of PCB-153 on glucose and lipid metabolism in vivo and in vitro. We found that PCB-153 induced per se and worsened high fat diet (HFD)-resulted increase of blood glucose level and glucose and insulin intolerance. In addition, PCB-153 induced per se and worsened HFD-resulted increase of triglyceride content and adipose mass. Moreover, PCB-153 concentration-dependently inhibited insulin-dependent glucose uptake and lipid accumulation in cultured hepatocytes and adipocytes. PCB-153 induced the expression and nuclear translocation of p65 NF-κB and the expression of its downstream inflammatory markers, and worsened HFD-resulted increase of those inflammatory markers. Inhibition of NF-κB significantly suppressed PCB-153-induced inflammation, lipid accumulation and decrease of glucose uptake. PCB-153 induced oxidative stress and decreased hepatocyte nuclear factor 1b (HNF1b) and glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPx1) expression in vivo and in vitro. Overexpression of HNF1b increased GPx1 expression, decreased ROS level, decreased Srebp1, ACC and FAS expression, and inhibited PCB-153-resulted oxidative stress, NF-κB-mediated inflammation, and final glucose/lipid metabolic disorder. Our results suggest that dysregulation of HNF1b/ROS/NF-κB plays an important role in PCB-153-induced glucose/lipid metabolic disorder.
