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

Epoxides of free fatty acids (FFAs), especially epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), are lipid mediators with beneficial effects in metabolic and cardiovascular (CV) health. FFA epoxides are quickly metabolized to biologically less active diols by soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH). Inhibition of sEH, which increases EET levels, improves glucose homeostasis and CV health and is proposed as an effective strategy for the treatment of diabetes and CV diseases. Here, we show evidence that sEH activity is profoundly reduced in postprandial states in rats; plasma levels of 17 sEH products (i.e., FFA diols), detected by targeted oxylipin analysis, all decreased after a meal. In addition, the ratios of sEH product to substrate (sEH P/S ratios), which may reflect sEH activity, decreased ~70% on average 2.5 h after a meal in rats (P<.01). To examine whether this effect was mediated by insulin action, a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp was performed for 2.5 h, and sEH P/S ratios were assessed before and after the clamp. The clamp resulted in small increases rather than decreases in sEH P/S ratios (P<.05), indicating that insulin cannot account for the postprandial decrease in sEH P/S ratios. Interestingly, in rats treated with antibiotics to deplete gut bacteria, the postprandial effect to decrease sEH P/S ratios was completely abolished, suggesting that a gut bacteria-derived factor(s) may be responsible for the effect. Further studies are warranted to identify such a factor(s) and elucidate the mechanism by which sEH activity (or sEH P/S ratio) is reduced in postprandial states.
