The emerging role of circadian rhythms in the development and function of thermogenic fat.
Review in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Circadian rhythms regulate many biological processes in response to ambient influences. A disrupted circadian rhythm has been shown to be associated with obesity and obesity-related metabolic disorders. Thermogenic fat, including brown and beige fat, may play an important role in this process since it displays a high capacity to burn fat and release the stored energy as heat, contributing to the combat against obesity and its associated metabolic disorders. In this review, we summarize the relationship between the circadian clock and thermogenic fat and the prominent mechanisms which are involved in the regulation of the development and function of thermogenic fat by circadian rhythms, which may provide novel therapeutics for the prevention and treatment of metabolic diseases by targeting thermogenic fat in a circadian manner.
