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

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a heat-generating organ burning significant amounts of calories from fatty acids and glucose. The importance of glucose metabolism in the context of thermogenic function has been underlined by several studies. However, fructose metabolism and consequences of fructose overfeeding are poorly studied in BAT. Here we provide evidence that brown adipocytes use fructose as a substrate, however to a lesser extent than glucose. Furthermore, our data suggest that carbohydrate response element binding protein (ChREBP) and its target glucose transporter 5 (GLUT5) are not essential for fructose uptake and metabolism in BAT. Notably, we report that high fructose feeding has no effect on ChREBP activity and thus
