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

Thyroid hormone (TH) action is essential for hepatic lipid synthesis and oxidation. Analysis of hepatocyte-specific thyroid receptor β1 (TRβ1) knockout mice confirmed a role for TH in stimulating de novo lipogenesis and fatty acid oxidation through its nuclear receptor. Specifically, TRβ1 and its principal corepressor NCoR1 in hepatocytes repressed de novo lipogenesis, whereas the TH-mediated induction of lipogenic genes depended on the transcription factor ChREBP. Mice with a hepatocyte-specific deficiency in ChREBP lost TH-mediated stimulation of the lipogenic program, which, in turn, impaired the regulation of fatty acid oxidation. TH regulated ChREBP activation and recruitment to DNA, revealing a mechanism by which TH regulates specific signaling pathways. Regulation of the lipogenic pathway by TH through ChREBP was conserved in hepatocytes derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells. These results demonstrate that TH signaling in the liver acts simultaneously to enhance both lipogenesis and fatty acid oxidation.
