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

backgroundAdministration of olanzapine (OLA) is closely associated with obesity and glycolipid abnormalities in patients with schizophrenia (SCZ), although the exact molecular mechanisms remain elusive.

objectiveWe conducted comprehensive animal and molecular experiments to elucidate the mechanisms underlying OLA-induced weight gain.

methodsWe investigated the mechanisms of OLA-induced adipogenesis and lipid storage by employing a real-time ATP production rate assay, glucose uptake test, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) detection in 3T3-L1 cells and AMSCs. Rodent models were treated with OLA using various intervention durations, dietary patterns (normal diets/western diets), and drug doses. We assessed body weight, epididymal and liver fat levels, and metabolic markers in both male and female mice.

resultsOLA accelerates adipogenesis by directly activating glycolysis and its downstream PI3K signaling pathway in differentiated adipocytes. OLA promotes glucose uptake in differentiated 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. In mouse models with normal glycolipid metabolism, OLA administration failed to increase food intake and weight gain despite elevated GAPDH expression, a marker related to glycolysis and PI3K-AKT. This supports the notion that glycolysis plays a significant role in OLA-induced metabolic dysfunction.

conclusionOLA induces glycolysis and activates the downstream PI3K-AKT signaling pathway, thereby promoting adipogenesis.
