Effect of an Established Nutritional Level of Selenium on Energy Metabolism and Gene Expression in the Liver of Rainbow Trout.
Article in Biological trace element research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The nutritional selenium (Se) has been demonstrated to have health-boosting effects on fish. However, its effect on fish energy metabolism remains unclear. This study explores the effect and underlying mechanism of the action of nutritional Se on energy metabolism in fish. Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were fed a basal diet (0 mg Se/kg diet) and a diet containing an already established nutritional Se level (2 mg Se/kg diet, based on Se-yeast) for 30 days. After the feeding experiment, the plasma and liver biochemical profiles and liver transcriptome were analyzed. The results showed that the present nutritional level of Se significantly increased liver triglyceride, total cholesterol, and plasma total cholesterol contents (P < 0.05) compared with the control. Transcriptome analysis showed that 336 and 219 genes were significantly upregulated and downregulated, respectively. Gene enrichment analysis showed that many differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were associated with lipid metabolism pathways (fatty acid biosynthesis, fatty acid elongation, and unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis), carbohydrate metabolism pathways (glycolysis, the pentose phosphate pathway, and the citrate cycle), and the oxidative phosphorylation pathway. Real-time quantitative PCR (Q-PCR) validation results showed that the expression profiles of 15 genes exhibited similar trends both in RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and Q-PCR analysis. These results reveal that optimum dietary Se activates glucose catabolic processes, fatty acid biosynthetic processes, and energy production and hence produces higher liver lipid content. This study concludes that the previously established level of nutritional Se (Se-yeast) (2 mg/kg diet, fed basis) for rainbow trout promotes energy storage in the liver, which may benefit fish growth to some extent.
