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

Brown and beige fat protect against cold environments and obesity by catabolizing stored energy to generate heat. This process is achieved by controlling thermogenesis-related gene expression and the development of brown/beige fat through the induction of transcription factors, most notably PPARγ. However, the cofactors that induce the expression of thermogenic genes with PPARγ are still not well understood. In this study, we explored the role of SOX4 in adaptive thermogenesis and its relationship with PPARγ.
