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

objectiveNutrient challenge in the form of a high fat (HF) diet causes a reversible reprogramming of the hepatic circadian clock. This depends in part on changes in the recruitment of the circadian transcription factor BMAL1 to genome targets, though the causes and extent of disruption to hepatic and extra-hepatic BMAL1 are unknown. The objective of the study was to determine whether HF diet-induced alterations in BMAL1 function occur across insulin-resistant tissues and whether this could be reversed by restoring whole body insulin sensitivity.

methodsBMAL1 subcellular localization and target recruitment was analyzed in several metabolically active peripheral tissues, including liver, muscle, and adipose tissue under conditions of diet-induced obesity. Animals made obese with HF diet were subsequently treated with rosiglitazone to determine whether resensitizing insulin-resistant tissues to insulin restored hepatic and extra-hepatic BMAL1 function.

resultsThese data reveal that both hepatic and extra-hepatic BMAL1 activity are altered under conditions of obesity and insulin resistance. Restoring whole body insulin sensitivity by treatment with the antidiabetic drug rosiglitazone is sufficient to restore changes in HF diet-induced BMAL1 recruitment and activity in several tissues.

conclusionsThis study reveals that a key mechanism by which HF diet interferes with clock function in peripheral tissues is via the development of insulin resistance.
