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

Unlike the intensive research in pursuit of understanding the molecular mechanisms of insulin signaling and resistance to its biological action associated most significantly with obesity and type 2 diabetes, the influence of the plasma membrane on insulin sensitivity has been intermittently studied over the years-mainly because it was thought that mediators of insulin action, such as the insulin receptor and the insulin-responsive glucose transporter GLUT4, localize more or less uniformly in the lipids that form cell membranes. Recent insights into membrane physiology suggest that the plasma membrane impacts the function of membrane proteins mediating insulin action. Furthermore, membrane disturbances may be the basis of insulin resistance. Relevant insulin signal transduction data in terms of plasma membrane and insulin resistance are the focus of this review. The discussion visits the cell membrane hypothesis of insulin resistance that suggests insulin action could be related to changes in cell membrane properties.
