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

Adipose tissue has varying distributions and metabolic properties between the sexes. Inherent sex-specific differences in adipocytes may heighten the risk of metabolic disease in males. Analysis of the adipocyte proteome can potentially provide important insight. To enable cell-type specific proteomic profiling in vivo, we genetically engineered a mouse line for cell-type specific production of a promiscuous biotin ligase (BirA*G3) facilitating the rapid isolation of biotinylated cell-type specific proteomes. Adipocyte-specific activation of cytoplasmic BirA*G3 led to robust biotinylation of adipocyte proteins across all major fat depots. Comparison of brown adipose tissue (BAT) and subcutaneous white adipose tissue (SAT) proteomes identified 229 brown adipose-enriched and 35 white adipose-enriched proteins. Regional comparison of white fat depots revealed additional differences across depots. Comparison of male and female depots identified sexually dimorphic adipose proteins: AHNAK predominating in the male and ACOT2 in the female. These findings validate the genetic model and highlight insights to be gained through targeted profiling of adipocytes. The genetic tool adds to existing approaches for in vivo proximity profiling of cell-type specific proteome programs.
