The Fat Body: Structure and Functions.
Review in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
The fat body plays a vital role in the proper functioning of invertebrates, contributing to their metabolic processes and resilience. It serves as the central tissue for metabolism integrating signals, regulating molting and metamorphosis and producing hormones that govern the overall body function and immune system protein synthesis. Thanks to this multifunctionality, the fat body is responsible for the metabolism of basic compounds: lipids, carbohydrates and proteins, storing them in the form of reserves (protecting against weather conditions, starving, etc.) and "post-trials" metabolites. In this tissue the remodeling process takes place, which enables the metamorphosis of insects. Also, the fat body is the place of the synthesis of immune proteins, some hormones, pheromones and vitellogenin. Understanding its physiology has, therefore, become an important element of research on insects in the context of general health.
