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

We have investigated beta-adrenergic regulation of adenylate cyclase activity in heart tissue membranes from the genetically obese Zucker rat, the genetically obese CBA mouse and the genetically obese diabetic (db/db) mouse. Responsiveness to beta-adrenergic stimulation was impaired in membranes from the obese Zucker rat, but not in the other models. The membranes from obese Zucker rats showed both decreased beta-adrenergic-receptor number and altered coupling between beta-adrenergic receptors and the stimulatory guanine-nucleotide-binding protein, Gs. In contrast, no alterations in either the levels of Gs or the functional interaction between this protein and the catalytic moiety of adenylate cyclase were observed. In these three genetic models of obesity we observe dissimilar alterations in the control of adenylate cyclase.
