Adipose Tissue: A Novel Target of the Incretin Axis? A Paradigm Shift in Obesity-Linked Insulin Resistance.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Adipose tissue (AT) represents a plastic organ that can undergo significant remodeling in response to metabolic demands. With its numerous checkpoints, the incretin system seems to play a significant role in controlling glucose homeostasis and energy balance. The importance of the incretin hormones, namely the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and the glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP), in controlling the function of adipose cells has been brought to light by recent studies. Notably, a "paradigm shift" in reevaluating the role of the incretin system in AT as a potential target to treat obesity-linked metabolic disorders resulted from the demonstration that a disruption of the GIP and GLP-1 signaling axis in fat is associated with adiposity-induced insulin-resistance (IR) and/or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). We will briefly discuss the (patho)physiological functions of GLP-1 and GIP signaling in AT in this review, emphasizing their potential impacts on lipid storage, adipogenesis, glucose metabolism and inflammation. We will also address the conundrum with the perturbation of the incretin axis in white or brown fat tissue and the emergence of metabolic disorders. In order to reduce or avoid adiposity-related metabolic complications, we will finally go over a potential scientific rationale for suggesting AT as a novel target for GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonists and co-agonists.
