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

Whether and how regulatory events at the translation stage shape the cellular and metabolic features of thermogenic adipocytes is hardly understood. In this study, we report two hitherto unidentified cross-talk pathways between metabolic and translational regulation in beige adipocytes. By analysing temporal profiles of translation activity and protein level changes during precursor-to-beige differentiation, we found selective translational down-regulation of OXPHOS component-coding mRNAs. The down-regulation restricted to Complexes I, III, IV, and V, is coordinated with enhanced translation of TCA cycle genes, engendering distinct stoichiometry of OXPHOS and TCA cycle components and altering the related metabolic activities in mitochondria of thermogenic adipocytes. Our high-resolution description of ribosome positioning unveiled potentiated ribosome pausing at glutamate codons. The increased stalling is attributable to remodelled glutamate metabolism that decreases glutamates for tRNA charging during pan-adipocyte differentiation. The ribosome pauses decrease protein synthesis and mRNA stability of glutamate codon-rich genes, such as actin cytoskeleton-associated genes.
