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

Obesity is associated with low-grade chronic inflammation, and research has shown that RANTES and CCR5 mRNA levels are notably higher in the visceral adipose tissue of obese individuals compared to lean controls. However, the precise role of CCR5 activation in obesity development is still unclear. This study aims to explore the impact of CCR5 activation on adipogenesis and the underlying regulatory mechanisms. The study used 3T3-F442A preadipocytes and primary preadipocytes from wild-type (WT) and CCR5 knockout (CCR5
