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

The high incidence of obesity has increased the need to discover new therapeutic targets to combat obesity and obesity-related metabolic diseases. Obesity is defined as an abnormal accumulation of adipose tissue, which is one of the major metabolic organs that regulate energy homeostasis. However, there are currently no approved anti-obesity therapeutics that directly target adipose tissue metabolism. With recent advances in the understanding of adipose tissue biology, molecular mechanisms involved in brown adipose tissue expansion and metabolic activation have been investigated as potential therapeutic targets to increase energy expenditure. This review focuses on G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) as they are the most successful class of druggable targets in human diseases and have an important role in regulating adipose tissue metabolism. We summarize recent findings on the major GPCR classes that regulate thermogenesis and mitochondrial metabolism in adipose tissue. Improved understanding of GPCR signaling pathways that regulate these processes could facilitate the development of novel pharmacological approaches to treat obesity and related metabolic disorders.
