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

Estrogen-related receptors (ERRs) are important transcription factors within the nuclear receptor family that regulate cellular energy storage and consumption by binding to estrogen-related receptor response elements (ERREs) on gene promoters. While ERRs' role in vertebrates is well-studied, their molecular mechanisms in insect metabolism and development remain unclear. This study systematically summarizes the functions of ERRs in insects, focusing on silkworms by analyzing gene functions and comparing databases. ERRE-like elements were identified in the 2000 bp upstream promoter regions of 69 metabolism-related silkworm genes. Furthermore, electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) revealed that ERREs within the promoters of 15 genes related to sugar, fat, and protein metabolism specifically bind to ERR. Notably, an ERRE in the promoter of the trehalose transporter 1 gene (
