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.
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
Pituitary growth hormone (GH) functions physiologically to oppose the actions of insulin on carbohydrate and lipid metabolism by interfering with metabolic events that occur after insulin binds to its receptor. Which postreceptor effects are involved is presently unknown. Recently, we found that insulin rapidly stimulates a phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C (PI-PLC) in adipose tissue of obese (ob/ob) mice and that this effect of insulin is blocked by treatment of the animals with S-carboxymethylated human GH (RCM-hGH), a derivative having mainly anti-insulin activity. The activation of this PI-PLC by insulin is also inhibited by pertussis toxin. Thus, this study was performed to examine whether the inhibitory effect of GH on the activation of this PI-PLC is exerted at the level of signal transmission by guanine nucleotide binding proteins (G proteins). We found that the nonhydrolyzable GTP analogue, guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate, stimulated basal PI-PLC activity in plasma membranes of adipose tissue of saline-treated ob/ob mice, but it did not stimulate the enzyme in adipose membranes from RCM-hGH-treated mice. Also, RCM-hGH treatment markedly inhibited pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP ribosylation of G protein alpha subunits in the membranes, suggesting some modification of the G proteins by GH. Immunoblot analysis of adipose membranes from saline- and RCM-hGH-treated mice using antiserum AS/7 (anti-Gi1 alpha and anti-Gi2 alpha) or antiserum EC/2 (anti-Gi3 alpha) showed no difference in the amount of Gi alpha-like protein between the groups. These findings suggest that GH interferes with the ability of a putative Gi-like protein to mediate the activation of PI-PLC in adipose membranes without altering the expression of the G protein.
