Hexose metabolism in pancreatic islets: the glucose-6-phosphatase riddle.
Article in Molecular and cellular biochemistry, 1991. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Glucose-6-phosphatase activity was measured in rat liver or pancreatic islet crude homogenates and microsomes. The data recorded in the liver were comparable to those reported in prior studies. However, in the islets, the hydrolysis of D-glucose 6-phosphate by disrupted microsomes represented, when expressed relative to the protein content, less than 2% of the value recorded in liver microsomes. Moreover, no phosphotransferase activity was detected in the islets. These findings impose reservation on both the presence of glucose-6-phosphatase in rat islets and its participation to stimulus-secretion coupling.
