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

Patients with diabetes are at higher risk of stroke and experience increased morbidity and mortality after stroke. We hypothesized that cortical neurons develop insulin resistance, which decreases neuroprotection via circulating insulin and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I). Acute insulin treatment of primary embryonic cortical neurons activated insulin signaling including phosphorylation of the insulin receptor, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), Akt, p70S6K, and glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β). To mimic insulin resistance, cortical neurons were chronically treated with 25 mM glucose, 0.2 mM palmitic acid (PA), or 20 nM insulin before acute exposure to 20 nM insulin. Cortical neurons pretreated with insulin, but not glucose or PA, exhibited blunted phosphorylation of Akt, p70S6K, and GSK-3β with no change detected in ERK. Inhibition of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K) pathway during insulin pretreatment restored acute insulin-mediated Akt phosphorylation. Cortical neurons in adult BKS-db/db mice exhibited higher basal Akt phosphorylation than BKS-db(+) mice and did not respond to insulin. Our results indicate that prolonged hyperinsulinemia leads to insulin resistance in cortical neurons. Decreased sensitivity to neuroprotective ligands may explain the increased neuronal damage reported in both experimental models of diabetes and diabetic patients after ischemia-reperfusion injury.
