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

purposeIt is demonstrated that unsaturated fatty acids can counteract saturated fatty acids-induced lipotoxicity, but the molecular mechanisms are unclear. In this study, we investigated the protective effects of monounsaturated oleic acid (OA) against saturated palmitic acid (PA)-induced cytotoxicity in rat β cells as well as islets, and mechanistically focused on its regulation on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress.

methodsRat insulinoma cell line INS-1E cells and primary islets were treated with PA with or without OA for 24 h to determine the cell viability, apoptosis, and ER stress. SD rats were fed with high-fat diet (HFD) for 16 w, then, HFD was half replaced by olive oil to observe the protective effects of monounsaturated fatty acids rich diet.

resultsWe demonstrated that PA impaired cell viability and insulin secretion of INS-1E cells and rat islets, but OA robustly rescued cells from cell death. OA substantially alleviated either PA or chemical ER stressors (thapsigargin or tunicamycin)-induced ER stress. Importantly, OA attenuated the activity of PERK-eIF2α-ATF4-CHOP pathway and regulated the ER Ca

conclusionOA alleviated PA-induced lipotoxicity in INS-1E cells and improved insulin sensitivity in HFD rats. The amelioration of PA triggered ER stress may be responsible for its beneficial effects in β cells.
