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

Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) is a novel regulator, shown recently to regulate adipose tissue energy expenditure partly through changing NAD + content, which is essential for mitochondrial. We determine whether NNMT plays important role in energy metabolism during the beige adipogenesis in vivo and in vitro. Male C57BL/6 mice at 8 weeks old were exposed to 4 ℃ for 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 days, respectively. Interscapular brown adipose tissue (iBAT), inguinal subcutaneous WAT (sWAT), and epididymal WAT (eWAT) were harvested for gene and protein expression analysis and the correlation analysis. In addition, cultured primary mice brown adipocyte (BA) and white adipocyte (WA) treated with or without β3-adrenoceptor agonist (CL316, 243) were also harvested for these analyses. A combination of NNMT and its related genetic (Nmnat1, Nampt, Cyp2e1, Nrk1, Cd38) and proteic analyses and also the NAD + levels demonstrated the dynamical and depot-specific remodeling of NAD metabolism in different adipose tissues in response to cold exposure. While upon CL316, 243 treatment, gene expression of Nnmt, Nampt, Cyp2e1, and Nrk1 was all significantly decreased in WA but not in BA. The increased NAD + amount in BA and WA during the beige adipogenesis was observed. Besides, it is demonstrated that the expression of NNMT both in sWAT and WA showed significant negative correlation with browning markers UCP-1 and PGC-1α at protein levels. Above all, NNMT was induced in WAT during the 'cold remodeling' phase and correlated negatively with the process of browning in sWAT and WA, indicating the specific role of NNMT in the regulation of energy homeostasis during the process of beige adipogenesis.
