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

Extensive evidence supports the connection between obesity-induced inflammation and the heightened expression of IL-6 adipose tissues. However, the mechanism underlying the IL-6 exacerbation in the adipose tissue remains unclear. There is general agreement that TNF-α and stearate concentrations are mildly elevated in adipose tissue in the state of obesity. We hypothesize that TNF-α and stearate co-treatment induce the increased expression of IL-6 in mouse adipocytes. We therefore aimed to determine IL-6 gene expression and protein production by TNF-α/stearate treated adipocytes and investigated the mechanism involved. To test our hypothesis, 3T3-L1 mouse preadipocytes were treated with TNF-α, stearate, or TNF-α/stearate. IL-6 gene expression was assessed by quantitative real-time qPCR. IL-6 protein production secreted in the cell culture media was determined by ELISA. Acetylation of histone was analyzed by Western blotting. Il6 region-associated histone H3 lysine 9/18 acetylation (H3K9/18Ac) was determined by ChIP-qPCR. 3T3-L1 mouse preadipocytes were co-challenged with TNF-α and stearate for 24 h, which led to significantly increased IL-6 gene expression (81 ± 2.1 Fold) compared to controls stimulated with either TNF-α (38 ± 0.5 Fold;
