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

Obesity is a debilitating disease that has become a global epidemic. Although progress is being made, the underlying molecular mechanism by which obesity develops still remains elusive. Recently, we reported that the expression levels of bromodomain-containing protein 7 (BRD7) are significantly reduced in the liver of obese mice. However, it is not clear whether decreased levels of hepatic BRD7 are directly associated with the development of obesity and disturbance in glucose homeostasis. Here, using heterozygous BRD7 knockout and liver-specific BRD7 knockout mouse models, we report that reduced BRD7 levels lead to increased weight gain with little effect on glucose metabolism. On the other hand, upregulating BRD7 in the liver starting at an early age protects mice from gaining excessive weight and developing glucose intolerance and insulin resistance when challenged with a high-fat diet.
