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

Cytosolic free Ca2+ plays an important role in the molecular mechanisms leading to regulated insulin secretion by the pancreatic beta cell. A number of Ca2+-binding proteins have been implicated in this process. Here, we define the role of the Ca2+-binding protein neuronal Ca2+ sensor-1 (NCS-1) in insulin secretion. In pancreatic beta cells, NCS-1 increases exocytosis by promoting the priming of secretory granules for release and increasing the number of granules residing in the readily releasable pool. The effect of NCS-1 on exocytosis is mediated through an increase in phosphatidylinositol (PI) 4-kinase beta activity and the generation of phosphoinositides, specifically PI 4-phosphate and PI 4,5-bisphosphate. In turn, PI 4,5-bisphosphate controls exocytosis through the Ca2+-dependent activator protein for secretion present in beta cells. Our results provide evidence for an essential role of phosphoinositide synthesis in the regulation of glucose-induced insulin secretion by the pancreatic beta cell. We also demonstrate that NCS-1 and its downstream target, PI 4-kinase beta, are critical players in this process by virtue of their capacity to regulate the release competence of the secretory granules.
