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

Heat stress (HS) leads to increased lipid storage and expression of cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PCK1) in pig adipocytes. However, the importance of PCK1 activation and lipid storage in the adaptive response to HS is unknown. Therefore, in vitro experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of PCK1 inhibition with 3-mercaptopicolinic acid (3MPA) on lipid storage and adipocyte response during HS. In vitro culture of adipocytes under HS (41.0 °C) increased (P < 0.05) triacylglycerol accumulation compared with control (37.0 °C). HS increased (P < 0.05) reactive oxygen species level and 3MPA further upregulated (P < 0.05) its level. Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) gene expression was induced (P < 0.05) by HS compared to control, and PCK1 inhibition with 3MPA attenuated (P < 0.05) its induction by HS. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress markers, C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) was also upregulated by HS and 3MPA further upregulated (P < 0.05) CHOP mRNA level. These results suggest that with inhibition of PCK1 during HS, in vitro cultured adipocytes were less able to induce adaptive responses such as upregulation of HSP70 and triglycerides, and this exacerbated ER stress during HS. Thus, PCK1 may function to alleviate ER stress that occurs during HS.
