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

N6-methyladenosine (m6A), a predominant and reversible modification of mammalian RNA, plays a critical role in regulating growth, development, and metabolism. While methyltransferase-like 14 (METTL14) is an essential component of the m6A methyltransferase complex, its specific function in regulating milk fat metabolism in dairy goats remains unexplored. This study therefore aimed to elucidate the role of METTL14 in lipid metabolism within dairy goat mammary epithelial cells (GMECs). METTL14 overexpression significantly promoted the synthesis of TAG (Triacylglycerol) and TC (Total cholesterol), as well as lipid droplet accumulation in GMECs. Furthermore, METTL14 upregulated CCAAT enhancer binding protein beta (CEBPB) expression at both the mRNA and protein levels by directly inducing m6A modification on its transcripts. Finally, we confirmed that m6A modification occurs specifically at site 1662 of
