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

Sulfonylurea receptors (SURs) form an integral part of the ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channel complex that is present in most excitable cell types. K(ATP) channels couple cellular metabolism to electrical activity and provide a wide range of cellular functions including stimulus secretion coupling in pancreatic β cells. K(ATP) channels are composed of SURs and inward rectifier potassium channel (Kir6.x) subunits encoded by the ABCC8/9 and KCNJ8/11 genes, respectively. Recent advances in the genetics, molecular biology, and pharmacology of SURs have led to an increased understanding of these channels in the etiology and treatment of rare genetic insulin secretory disorders. Furthermore, common genetic variants in these genes are associated with an increased risk for type 2 diabetes. In this review we summarize the molecular biology, pharmacology, and physiology of SURs and K(ATP) channels, highlighting recent advances in their genetics and understanding of rare insulin secretory disorders and susceptibility to type 2 diabetes.
