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

Obesity and obesity-associated diseases represent one of the key health challenges of our time. In this context, aberrant hepatic lipid accumulation is a central pathological aspect of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). By comparing methylation signatures of liver biopsies before and after bariatric surgery, we recently demonstrated the strong enrichment of differentially methylated heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) binding sites (>400-fold) in the process of liver remodeling, indicating a crucial role of HSF1 in modulating central aspects of NAFLD pathogenesis. Using cellular models of NAFLD, we were able to show that HSF1 is activated during fat accumulation in hepatocytes, mimicking conditions in patients before bariatric surgery. This induction was abolished by starving the cells, mimicking the situation after bariatric surgery. Regarding this connection, carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 isoform A (CTP1a), a central regulator of lipid beta-oxidation, was identified as a HSF1 target gene by promoter analysis and HSF1 knockdown experiments. Finally, pharmacological activation of HSF1 through celastrol reduced fat accumulation in the cells in a HSF1-dependent manner. In conclusion, we were able to confirm the relevance of HSF1 activity and described a functional HSF1-CPT1a pathway in NAFLD pathogenesis.
