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

Obesity is a worldwide chronic metabolic disease characterized by an abnormal fat accumulation and represents one of the main risk factors for several diseases. White adipose tissue is the primary site for energy storage in the form of triglycerides, whereas brown adipose tissue does not store energy-providing lipids but rather dissipates it by producing heat. White-to-brown adipocyte trans-differentiation could represent a new target of anti-obesity strategies and result in fat reduction. Previous studies indicated that adenosine receptor activation induces trans-differentiation of white adipocytes to brown adipocytes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN), an A
