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.
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
Fat-specific protein 27 (FSP27) is highly expressed in the fatty liver of genetically obese ob/ob mice and promotes hepatic triglyceride (TG) accumulation. The nuclear hormone receptor liver X receptor α (LXRα) also plays a critical role in the control of TG levels in the liver. The present study demonstrated transcriptional regulation of Fsp27a and Fsp27b genes by LXRα. Treatment with the LXR ligand T0901317 markedly increased Fsp27a and Fsp27b mRNAs in wild-type C57BL/6J and ob/ob mouse livers. A reporter assay indicated that two LXR-responsive elements (LXREs) are necessary for LXRα-dependent induction of Fsp27a and Fsp27b promoter activities. Furthermore, the LXRα/retinoid X receptor α complex is capable of directly binding to the two LXREs both in vitro and in vivo. These results suggest that LXRα positively regulates Fsp27a and Fsp27b expression through two functional LXREs. Fsp27a/b are novel LXR target genes in the ob/ob fatty liver.
