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

Peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) and sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) play a role in regulating cellular fatty acid and cholesterol homeostasis via fatty acid oxidation and lipogenesis. The control of SREBP processing is regulated by the insulin induced gene (INSIG)2a protein, which binds SREBP to prevent SREBP translocation to the Golgi apparatus during nutrient starvation in the liver. However, the regulation of SREBP-1c processing by INSIGs during fasting and the regulatory mechanisms of the mouse Insig2a gene expression have not been clearly addressed. In the present study, we found that Insig2a was upregulated by PPARα in mouse livers and primary hepatocytes during fasting, whereas Insig2a mRNA expression was decreased in the livers of refed mice. A PPAR-responsive element between -126 bp and -114 bp in the Insig2a promoter was identified by a transient transfection assay and a chromatin immunoprecipitation assay; its role in regulation by PPARα was characterised using Pparα-null mice. These results suggest that PPARα is a trans-acting factor that enhances Insig2a gene expression, thereby suppressing SREBP-1c processing during fasting.
