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 is a key risk factor for the development of metabolic disease. Bioactive sphingolipid metabolites are among the lipids increased in obesity. Obesogenic saturated fatty acids are substrates for serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) the rate-limiting step in de novo sphingolipid biosynthesis. The mammalian orosomucoid-like protein isoforms ORMDL1-3 negatively regulate SPT activity. Here we summarize evidence that dysregulation of sphingolipid metabolism and SPT activity correlates with pathogenesis of obesity. This review also discusses the current understanding of the function of SPT and ORMDL in obesity and metabolic disease. Gaps and limitations in current knowledge are highlighted together with the need to further understand how ORMDL3, which has been identified as an obesity-related gene, contributes to the pathogenesis of obesity and development of metabolic disease related to its physiological functions. Finally, we point out the needs to move this young field of research forward.
