Utilizing systems biology to reveal cellular responses to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ ligand exposure.
Article in Current research in toxicology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) is a nuclear receptor that, upon activation by ligands, heterodimerizes with retinoid X receptor (RXR), binds to PPAR response elements (PPREs), and activates transcription of downstream genes. As PPARγ plays a central role in adipogenesis, fatty acid storage, and glucose metabolism, PPARγ-specific pharmaceuticals (e.g., thiazolidinediones) have been developed to treat Type II diabetes and obesity within human populations. However, to our knowledge, no prior studies have concurrently assessed the effects of PPARγ ligand exposure on genome-wide PPARγ binding as well as effects on the transcriptome and lipidome within human cells at biologically active, non-cytotoxic concentrations. In addition to quantifying concentration-dependent effects of ciglitazone (a reference PPARγ agonist) and GW 9662 (a reference PPARγ antagonist) on human hepatocarcinoma (HepG2) cell viability, PPARγ abundance
