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

Prevalence of obesity becomes an important health issue worldwide, but the management of obesity remains unsatisfied. This study aimed to explore the mechanism of long non-coding RNA TUG/miR-204/SIRT1 axis, which was involved in the pathogenesis of obesity. Obesity mouse model was induced by high-fat diet and treated with taurine upregulated gene1 (TUG1) virus via tail intravenous injection. Then, body weight, serum glucose, insulin tolerance, testicular fat weight were detected, as well as the expression of TUG1, microRNA-204 (miR-204), sirtuin1 (SIRT1), and inflammation and fatty accumulation associated proteins and cytokines. Regulatory relationship between TUG1/SIRT1 and miR-204 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter activity assay. A high-glucose-induced 3T3-L1 cell model was also constructed to explore the regulatory mechanism of TUG/miR-204/SIRT1 axis in the pathogenesis of obesity at cell level after altering the expression of TUG1, miR-204, and SIRT1. Overexpression of TUG1 could significantly attenuate the weight, serum glucose, glucose, insulin tolerance, fatty accumulation, and inflammation in obesity mice, as well as the elevation of miR-204, but increase the expression of SIRT1, phosphorylated AKT (p-AKT), glucose transporter4 (GLUT4), and peroxisome proliferator activated receptorγ (PPARγ). Both TUG1 and SIRT1 were targets of miR-204 and could be negatively regulated by miR-204. Overexpression of TUG1 could suppress the inflammation in adipocytes via downregulating miR-204 and promote GLUT4/PPARγ/AKT pathway high-glucose-induced inflammation in 3T3-L1 cells. miR-204 inhibitors could also suppress high-glucose-induced inflammation in 3T3-L1 cells via promoting SIRT1/ GLUT4/PPARγ/AKT pathway. LncRNA TUG1 could negatively regulate miR-204 to alleviate inflammation and insulin tolerance via promoting SIRT1/GLUT4/PPARγ/AKT pathway.
