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

Circadian clocks regulate physiological functions, including energy metabolism, along the 24-hour day cycle. The mammalian clock system is organized in a hierarchical manner with a coordinating pacemaker residing in the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). The SCN clock is reset primarily by the external light-dark cycle while other zeitgebers such as the timing of food intake are potent synchronizers of many peripheral tissue clocks. Under conflicting zeitgeber conditions, e.g. during shift work, phase synchrony across the clock network is disrupted promoting the development of metabolic disorders. We established a zeitgeber desynchrony (ZD) paradigm to quantify the differential contributions of the two main zeitgebers, light and food, to the resetting of specific tissue clocks and the effect on metabolic homeostasis in mice. Under 28-hour light-dark and 24-hour feeding-fasting conditions SCN and peripheral clock, as well as activity and hormonal rhythms showed specific periodicities aligning in-between those of the two zeitgebers. During ZD, metabolic homeostasis was cyclic with mice gaining weight under synchronous and losing weight under conflicting zeitgeber conditions. In summary, our study establishes an experimental paradigm to compare zeitgeber input in vivo and study the physiological consequences of chronodisruption.
