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 AND

aimPeroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) is a molecular target of various fibrate drugs clinically used to lower serum lipids. However, the tissue-specific functions of PPARα remain to be elucidated. This study aimed to explore the tissue-specific functions of PPARα in response to Wy-14643.

methodsA hepatocyte-specific Ppara knockout mouse line was used to explore the impact of hepatic PPARα activity on the systemic response to treatment with the potent PPARα agonist Wy-14643.

resultsWy-14643 mainly activated hepatic PPARα and regulated the expression of PPARα target genes in liver. Hepatic Ppara disruption abolished the triglyceride lowering effects of Wy-14643, prevented agonist-induced hypophagia, and ablated PPARα target gene response in the liver.

conclusionsThese findings indicate that Wy-14643 treatment mainly activates hepatic PPARα, and the hypolipidemic and hypophagic effects of Wy-14643 are dependent on PPARα activation within hepatocytes.
