Distinct Hypothalamic and Brainstem Contributions to Lorcaserin Action.
Article in Cell metabolism, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC)-expressing neurons regulate energy balance and mediate the effects of some classes of anti-obesity therapeutics. In this issue of Cell Metabolism, D'Agostino et al. (2018) demonstrate that a small and often overlooked population of POMC neurons in the brainstem contributes to satiation induced by the FDA-approved drug lorcaserin.
