Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Insulin signalling via phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) requires PIK3R1- encoded regulatory subunits. C-terminal PIK3R1 mutations cause SHORT syndrome, as well as lipodystrophy and insulin resistance (IR), surprisingly without fatty liver or metabolic dyslipidaemia. We sought to investigate this discordance. The human pathogenic Pik3r1 Y657 ∗ mutation was knocked into mice by homologous recombination. Growth, body composition, bioenergetic and metabolic profiles were investigated on chow and high-fat diet (HFD). We examined adipose and liver histology, and assessed liver responses to fasting and refeeding transcriptomically. Like humans with SHORT syndrome, Pik3r1 WT/Y657∗ mice were small with severe IR, and adipose expansion on HFD was markedly reduced. Also as in humans, plasma lipid concentrations were low, and insulin-stimulated hepatic lipogenesis was not increased despite hyperinsulinemia. At odds with lipodystrophy, however, no adipocyte hypertrophy nor adipose inflammation was found. Liver lipogenic gene expression was not significantly altered, and unbiased transcriptomics showed only minor changes, including evidence of reduced endoplasmic reticulum stress in the fed state and diminished Rictor-dependent transcription on fasting. Increased energy expenditure, which was not explained by hyperglycaemia nor intestinal malabsorption, provided an alternative explanation for the uncoupling of IR from dyslipidaemia. Pik3r1 dysfunction in mice phenocopies the IR and reduced adiposity without lipotoxicity of human SHORT syndrome. Decreased adiposity may not reflect bona fide lipodystrophy, but rather, increased energy expenditure, and we suggest that further study of brown adipose tissue in both humans and mice is warranted.
