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 nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are global health concerns, and thus, drugs for the long-term treatment of these diseases are urgently needed. We previously discovered that the inositol pyrophosphate biosynthetic enzyme IP6K1 is a target in diet-induced obesity (DIO), insulin resistance, and NAFLD. Moreover, high-throughput screening (HTS) assays and structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies identified LI-2242 as a potent IP6K inhibitor compound. Here, we tested the efficacy of LI-2242 in DIO
