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

The proteome characterising a specific cell type makes up a unique intracellular signalling network and signalling has to be studied in a cell specific manner. Beta-adrenergic receptors are coupled to production of cAMP and PKA was initially believed to be the only protein activated by cAMP. However, cAMP-mediated signalling via Epac and Rap1 has emerged as an important contributor to cAMP signalling. In the current issue of the British Journal of Pharmacology, Kanda and Watanabe report that adrenaline stimulates glucose uptake in vascular smooth muscle cells. With pharmacological methods, supplemented with small interfering RNA against Rap1, the authors demonstrate that adrenaline increases glucose uptake via G(s), adenylate cyclase, cAMP and Rap1 activation. The authors could document neither PKA nor Epac as the receptor for cAMP mediating the effect. Although there is no doubt that Rap1 mediates adrenaline-stimulated glucose uptake in vascular smooth muscle cells, it may be too early to exclude PKA and Epac.
