The response of adipose tissues to Mycoplasma pulmonis and Sendai virus infection in C57BL/6 and DBA/2 mice.

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
Adipose tissues in mammals are categorized into white and brown adipose tissues in which cellular morphology, cell functions, and tissue distribution are different. White adipose tissue (WAT) plays a major role in energy reservation, while brown adipose tissue (BAT) mainly relates to the thermoregulation of the body. One interesting function of adipose tissue is the response to the infection, especially the pathogens that cause pneumonia. We have previously reported that DBA/2 (D2) mice are susceptible to pathogens causing pneumonia, Mycoplasma (M.) pulmonis and Sendai virus (SeV), whereas C57BL/6 (B6) mice are resistant to them. Furthermore, morphological alteration of mediastinal fat tissue (MFT) was seen after infection of M. pulmonis in D2 mice but not in B6 mice. In this study, we aimed to exhibit the difference in adipose tissue response in other areas, including interscapular brown adipose tissue (iBAT), inguinal white adipose tissue (ingWAT), and perigonadal WAT (perigoWAT) between resistant strain, B6 and susceptible strain, D2 after challenging them with M. pulmonis and SeV. Compared with B6 mice, D2 mice showed an increase in fat-associated lymphoid cluster in MFT, an increase in BAT in both iBAT and ingWAT after M. pulmonis and SeV infection. The results of this study indicate that pneumonia caused by M. pulmonis and SeV infection induces browning of adipocyte, suggesting that BAT plays a role in pathogen infection and inflammation.
