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

AIMS/

introductionFat-specific protein 27 (FSP27) α is the major isoform of FSP27 in white adipose tissue (WAT), and is essential for large unilocular lipid droplet (LD) formation in white adipocytes. In contrast, FSP27β is abundantly expressed in brown adipose tissue (BAT), and plays an important role in small multilocular LD formation. In FSP27 KO mice in which FSP27α and β are both depleted, WAT is characterized by multilocular LD formation, and by increased mitochondrial abundance and energy expenditure, whereas BAT conversely manifests large oligolocular LDs and reduced energy expenditure. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe investigated the effects of autophagy in WAT and BAT of wild type (WT) and FSP27 knockout (KO) mice. In addition, we examined the effects of FSP27α and FSP27β to the induction of autophagy in COS cells.

resultsFood deprivation induced autophagy in BAT of WT mice, as well as in WAT of FSP27 KO mice, suggesting that enhanced autophagy is characteristic of adipocytes with small multilocular LDs. Pharmacological inhibition of autophagy attenuated the fasting-induced loss of LD area in adipocytes with small multilocular LDs (BAT of WT mice and WAT of FSP27 KO mice), without affecting that in adipocytes with large unilocular or oligolocular LDs (WAT of WT mice or in BAT of FSP27 KO mice). Overexpression of FSP27α inhibited autophagy induction by serum deprivation in COS cells, whereas that of FSP27β had no such effect.

conclusionsThe present results thus showed that FSP27α inhibits autophagy and might thereby contribute to the energy-storage function of WAT.
