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

UbiA prenyltransferase domain containing 1 (Ubiad1) has the potential to affect cholesterol and phospholipid levels in different cell types. We previously identified Ubiad1 as a candidate gene for regulating subcutaneous fat pad weight in a mouse genome-wide association study. Here we evaluated the relationship between Ubiad1 and obesity-related traits in cohorts of humans and mice, and in Ubiad1
