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

Human aging is frequently accompanied by the acquisition of somatic mutations in the hematopoietic system that induce clonal hematopoiesis, leading to the development of a mutant clone of hematopoietic progenitors and leukocytes. This somatic-mutation-driven clonal hematopoiesis has been associated with an increased incidence of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes, but whether this epidemiological association reflects a direct, causal contribution of mutant hematopoietic and immune cells to age-related metabolic abnormalities remains unexplored. Here, we show that inactivating mutations in the epigenetic regulator TET2, which lead to clonal hematopoiesis, aggravate age- and obesity-related insulin resistance in mice. This metabolic dysfunction is paralleled by increased expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β in white adipose tissue, and it is suppressed by pharmacological inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated IL-1β production. These findings support a causal contribution of somatic TET2 mutations to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.
