Wnt Signaling: From Mesenchymal Cell Fate to Lipogenesis and Other Mature Adipocyte Functions.
Review in Diabetes, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 39 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Wnt signaling is an ancient and evolutionarily conserved pathway with fundamental roles in the development of adipose tissues. Roles of this pathway in mesenchymal stem cell fate determination and differentiation have been extensively studied. Indeed, canonical Wnt signaling is a significant endogenous inhibitor of adipogenesis and promoter of other cell fates, including osteogenesis, chondrogenesis, and myogenesis. However, emerging genetic evidence in both humans and mice suggests central roles for Wnt signaling in body fat distribution, obesity, and metabolic dysfunction. Herein, we highlight recent studies that have begun to unravel the contributions of various Wnt pathway members to critical adipocyte functions, including carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. We further explore compelling evidence of complex and coordinated interactions between adipocytes and other cell types within adipose tissues, including stromal, immune, and endothelial cells. Given the evolutionary conservation and ubiquitous cellular distribution of this pathway, uncovering the contributions of Wnt signaling to cell metabolism has exciting implications for therapeutic intervention in widespread pathologic states, including obesity, diabetes, and cancers.
