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

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a chronic liver disease with an increasing global prevalence associated with tremendous clinical, economic, and health-related quality-of-life burden. Currently, no effective pharmacological therapy is available for NAFLD. Adipogenesis process is accompanied by fat synthesis which may participate in the occurrence and development of NAFLD. Despite intensive investigations, numerous mechanistic aspects of adipogenesis remain unclear and many potential therapeutic targets are yet to be discovered.In this study, the transcriptomics and lipidomics approaches were used to explore the functional genes regulating adipogenesis and the potential mechanism in OP9 cells and adipose-derived stem cells.We find that NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase subunit b9 (Ndufb9) is up-regulated in adipogenesis (p < 0.001), and silencing Ndufb9 (83% silencing efficiency) inhibits adipogenesis. The effect of Ndufb9 is mediated through stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (Scd1). Aramchol, a SCD1 inhibitor, significantly blocks adipogenesis (markedly TG decrease, p < 0.001).Our study broadens the understanding of the role of Ndufb9 in adipogenesis and provides a new target for the treatment of NAFLD.
