In Vivo Hepatic Triglyceride Secretion Rate in Antisense Oligonucleotide (ASO)-Treated Mice.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The liver is a central organ in regulating the whole body metabolic homeostasis, and, among many other processes, it plays a crucial role in lipoprotein metabolism. The liver controls the secretion of very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDLs), particles specialized in the transport of liver lipids, mainly triglycerides (TGs), to the adipose tissue, heart, and muscle, among other tissues, providing fatty acids to be stored or to be used as an energy source. The analysis of this metabolic process provides relevant information about the crosstalk between the liver and other organs. It also helps to identify how the liver is able to secrete lipids to reduce its accumulation. This protocol shows how to analyze the liver TG secretion rate blocking the VLDL clearance from the blood by the administration of poloxamer 407. In addition, it shows how to isolate the VLDL produced by the liver at the end of the experiment, so that the apolipoprotein and lipid content and size can be measured. Using antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) for silencing target proteins involved in metabolic diseases has emerged as a new promising therapeutic approach. Thus, the usage of ASOs has also been included in this protocol. As a conclusion, evaluation of TG secretion rate in mice provides key information to understand the organ crosstalk in metabolic diseases and the capacity of the liver to secrete lipids to blood.
