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 metabolic pathways that are involved in regulating insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells are still incompletely understood. One potential regulator of the metabolic phenotype of β-cells is the transcription factor aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT)/hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1β. ARNT/HIF-1β levels are profoundly reduced in islets obtained from type 2 diabetic patients. However, no study to date has investigated key pathways involved in regulating insulin release in β-cells that lack ARNT/HIF-1β. In this study, we confirm that siRNA-mediated knockdown of ARNT/HIF-1β inhibits glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. We next investigated the metabolic consequence of the loss of ARNT/HIF-1β knockdown. We demonstrate that β-cells with reduced ARNT/HIF-1β expression levels exhibit a 31% reduction in glycolytic flux without significant changes in glucose oxidation or the ATP:ADP ratio. Metabolic profiling of β-cells treated with siRNAs against the ARNT/HIF-1β gene revealed that glycolysis, anaplerosis, and glucose-induced fatty acid production were down-regulated, and all are key events involved in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. In addition, both first and second phase insulin secretion in islets were significantly reduced after ARNT/HIF-1β knockdown. Together, our data suggest an important role for ARNT/HIF-1β in anaplerosis, and it may play a critical role in maintaining normal secretion competence of β-cells.
