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

aims/hypothesisPeroxisome proliferator activated receptor-gamma coactivator-1beta (PGC-1beta, also known as PPARGC1B) expression is reduced in skeletal muscle from patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and in elderly subjects. Ala203Pro, a common variant in the PGC-1beta gene is associated with obesity. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the PGC-1beta Ala203Pro polymorphism influences the age-related decline in skeletal muscle PGC-1beta expression, in vivo metabolism and markers for muscle fibre type composition. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe PGC-1beta Ala203Pro polymorphism was genotyped in 110 young (age 28.0 +/- 1.9 years) and 86 elderly (age 62.4 +/- 2.0 years) twins and related to muscle PGC-1beta expression, in vivo metabolism and markers for fibre type composition.

resultsInsulin-stimulated non-oxidative glucose metabolism (NOGM; p = 0.025) and glycolytic flux rate (GF; p = 0.026) were reduced in young Ala/Ala carriers compared with carriers of a 203Pro allele. In addition, a regression analysis, correcting for covariates, showed that the PGC-1beta 203Pro allele was positively related to insulin-stimulated NOGM and GF in the young twins. While muscle expression of PGC-1beta was reduced in elderly compared with young carriers of the Ala/Ala genotype (p < or = 0.001), there was no significant age-related decline in PGC-1beta expression in carriers of the 203Pro allele (p > or = 0.4). However, a regression analysis, correcting for covariates, showed that only age was significantly related to muscle PGC-1beta expression. Finally, PGC-1beta expression correlated positively with markers for oxidative fibres in human muscle. CONCLUSIONS/

interpretationThis study suggests that young carriers of a PGC-1beta 203Pro allele have enhanced insulin-stimulated glucose metabolism and may be protected against an age-related decline in PGC-1beta expression in muscle.
