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
backgroundObesity is considered a major public health issue worldwide. Liver Kinase B1 (LKB1) is a serine/threonine kinase, peripheral LKB1 is involved in obesity by regulating adipogenesis, but the role of central LKB1 in the development of obesity remains unclear.
objectiveThis study aims to explore the main role of LKB1 in POMC neurons on obesity, and reveal the underlying mechanism of central LKB1 affecting obesity through quantitative proteomics.
methodsWe constructed POMC neuron specific LKB1 knockout mice (PomcLkb1 KO) and exposed them to high fat diet intervention for three months. The effect of LKB1 knockout on obesity was evaluated by monitoring body weight, food intake and measuring fat content. The hypothalamus tissues were collected for proteomic analysis and validated by RT-PCR.
resultsThe degree of obesity was aggravated in PomcLkb1 KO mice fed with high fat diet. Proteomic results showed that only Histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) was down-regulated in the hypothalamus of PomcLkb1 KO mice. Our research also found that LKB1 knockout on POMC neurons led to reduction of Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ). Meanwhile, the software predicted that the transcription factor PPARγ binds to the HDAC1 promoter. Therefore, we speculated that central LKB1 may regulate diet-induced obesity development by influencing HDAC1/PPARγ expression.
conclusionWe firstly found that central LKB1 may affect the development of obesity by regulating the expression of HDAC1, which provides a new idea for the central regulatory mechanism of obesity.
