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

In isolated rat adipocytes, the insulin stimulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase can be partially inhibited by inhibitors of PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase) and MEK1/2 (mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase). In combination, U0126 and wortmannin completely block the insulin stimulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase. It is concluded that the effect of insulin on pyruvate dehydrogenase in rat adipocytes involves two distinct signalling pathways: one is sensitive to wortmannin and the other to U0126. The synthetic phosphoinositolglycan PIG41 can activate pyruvate dehydrogenase but the activation is only approx. 30% of the maximal effect of insulin. This modest activation can be completely blocked by wortmannin alone, suggesting that PIG41 acts through only one of the pathways leading to the activation of pyruvate dehydrogenase.
