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/hypothesisWe aimed to identify, in the liver of mice, signal transduction pathways that show a pronounced regulation by acute exercise. We also aimed to elucidate the role of metabolic stress in this response.

methodsC57Bl6 mice performed a 60 min run on a treadmill under non-exhaustive conditions. Hepatic RNA and protein lysates were prepared immediately after running and used for whole-genome-expression analysis, quantitative real-time PCR and immunoblotting. A subset of mice recovered for 3 h after the treadmill run. A further group of mice performed the treadmill run after having received a vitamin C- and vitamin E-enriched diet over 4 weeks.

resultsThe highest number of genes differentially regulated by exercise in the liver was found in the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling pathway, with a pronounced and transient upregulation of the transcription factors encoded by c-Fos (also known as Fos), c-Jun (also known as Jun), FosB (also known as Fosb) and JunB (also known as Junb) and phosphorylation of hepatic MAPK. Acute exercise also activated the p53 signalling pathway. A major role for oxidative stress is unlikely since the antioxidant-enriched diet did not prevent the activation of the MAPK pathway. In contrast, lower plasma glucose levels after running were related to enhanced levels of MAPK signalling proteins, similar to the upregulation of Igfbp1 and Pgc-1alpha (also known as Ppargc1a). In the working muscle the activation of the MAPK pathway was weak and not related to plasma glucose concentrations. CONCLUSIONS/

interpretationMetabolic stress evidenced as low plasma glucose levels appears to be an important determinant for the activation of the MAPK signalling pathway and the transcriptional response of the liver to acute exercise.
