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 has received increasing attention in recent years because it is a factor in the development of non-communicable diseases. The current study aimed to analyze how representative fatty acids (FAs) such as palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, α-linolenic acid (ALA), and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) affected adipogenesis when/if introduced at the differentiation stage of 3T3-L1 cell culture. These FAs are assumed to be potentially relevant to the progression or prevention of obesity. EPA added during the differentiation stage reduced intracellular triacylglycerol (TAG) accumulation, as well as the expression of the established adipocyte-specific marker genes, during the maturation stage. However, no other FAs inhibited intracellular TAG accumulation. Coexistence of Δ
