Effect of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase on lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
Article in Bioengineered, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 9 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
Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) is a methylase, and its expression is positively correlated with obesity and insulin resistance. This study aims to detect the effects of NNMT on lipid accumulation, triglyceride content, adipocyte differentiation-related transcription factors, genes related to lipid metabolism, adipokine expression, and autophagy in adipocytes. Lentivirus vectors and eukaryotic expression plasmids were used to interfere with NNMT expression. The Oil Red O method was used to detect lipid accumulation, and colorimetry was used to detect triglyceride levels. The transcription of adipocyte differentiation-related transcription factors (PPARγ, C/EBPα, and SREBP1), lipid metabolism-related genes (
