Perilipin 2 Protects against Lipotoxicity-Induced Islet Fibrosis by Inducing Islet Stellate Cell Activation Phenotype Changes.
Article in BioMed research international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Aims: We explored whether and how perilipin 2 ( Methods: Six-week-old male rats were given a high-fat diet or a control diet for 28 weeks. Glucose metabolic phenotypes were assessed using glucose/insulin tolerance tests, masson, and immunohistochemical staining. ISCs activation levels were assessed from rats and palmitic acid- (PA-) treated cultured ISCs by immunofluorescence, Oil red O staining, electron microscopy, quantitative PCR, and western blotting. Changes in ISCs phenotype of activation degree and its underlying mechanisms were assessed by target gene lentiviral infection, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and western blotting. Results: Obese rats showed glucose intolerance, decreased endocrine hormone profiles, and elevated expression of Conclusions: Our observations suggest a protective role of
