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

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-tethered, liver-enriched stress sensor CREBH is processed in response to increased energy demands or hepatic stress to release an amino-terminal fragment that functions as a transcription factor for hepatic genes encoding lipid and glucose metabolic factors. Here, we discovered that the carboxyl-terminal fragment of CREBH (CREBH-C) derived from membrane-bound, full-length CREBH was secreted as a hepatokine in response to fasting or hepatic stress. Phosphorylation of CREBH-C mediated by the kinase CaMKII was required for efficient secretion of CREBH-C through exocytosis. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) mediates the lipolysis of circulating triglycerides for tissue uptake and is inhibited by a complex consisting of angiopoietin-like (ANGPTL) 3 and ANGPTL8. Secreted CREBH-C blocked the formation of ANGPTL3-ANGPTL8 complexes, leading to increased LPL activity in plasma and metabolic tissues in mice. CREBH-C administration promoted plasma triglyceride clearance and partitioning into peripheral tissues and mitigated hypertriglyceridemia and hepatic steatosis in mice fed a high-fat diet. Individuals with obesity had higher circulating amounts of CREBH-C than control individuals, and human
