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

Rab3 is a subfamily of the small GTP-binding protein Rab family and plays an important role in exocytosis. Several potential effectors of Rab3, including rabphilin3 and Rims (Rim1 and Rim2), have been isolated and characterized. Noc2 was identified originally in endocrine pancreas as a molecule homologous to rabphilin3, but its role in exocytosis is unclear. To clarify the physiological function of Noc2 directly, we have generated Noc2 knockout (Noc2(-/-)) mice. Glucose intolerance with impaired insulin secretion was induced in vivo by acute stress in Noc2(-/-) mice, but not in wild-type (Noc2(+/+)) mice. Ca(2+)-triggered insulin secretion from pancreatic isles of Noc2(-/-) mice was markedly impaired, but was completely restored by treatment with pertussis toxin, which inhibits inhibitory G protein Gi/o signaling. In addition, the inhibitory effect of clonidine, an alpha(2)-adrenoreceptor agonist, on insulin secretion was significantly greater in Noc2(-/-) islets than in Noc2(+/+) islets. Impaired Ca(2+)-triggered insulin secretion was rescued by adenovirus gene transfer of wild-type Noc2 but not by that of mutant Noc2, which does not bind to Rab3. Accordingly, Noc2 positively regulates insulin secretion from endocrine pancreas by inhibiting Gi/o signaling, and the interaction of Noc2 and Rab3 is required for the effect. Interestingly, we also found a marked accumulation of secretory granules in various exocrine cells of Noc2(-/-) mice, especially in exocrine pancreas with no amylase response to stimuli. Thus, Noc2, a critical effector of Rab3, is essential in normal regulation of exocytosis in both endocrine and exocrine cells.
