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

backgroundLiraglutide reduces blood glucose, body weight and blood lipid levels. Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) is a key enzyme in lipolysis. Evidence from our and other studies have demonstrated that adenylate cyclase 3 (AC3) is associated with obesity and can be upregulated by liraglutide in obese mice. In the present study, we investigated whether hepatic HSL activity is regulated by liraglutide and characterized the effect of liraglutide in the AC3/protein kinase A (PKA)/HSL signalling pathway.

methodsObese mice or their lean littermates were treated with liraglutide or saline for 8 weeks. Serum was collected for the measurement of insulin and lipids. We investigated hepatic AC3, HSL and phosphorylated HSL Ser-660 (p-HSL(S660)) protein expression levels andAC3 and HSL mRNA expression levels and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), PKA activity in liver tissue.

resultsLiraglutide treatment decreased triglycerides (TGs) and free fatty acids (FFAs), increased glycerol, and upregulated hepatic AC3 and p-HSL(s660) levels and cAMP and PKA activities.

conclusionThe results suggest that liraglutide can upregulates AC3/PKA/HSL pathway and may promotes lipolysis.
