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

1. White adipocytes were found to be more responsive than brown adipocytes to inhibition of lipolysis by the A1 adenosine receptor agonist phenylisopropyladenosine. 2. Radioligand binding studies with plasma membranes isolated from the two adipocyte types indicated differences in the properties of the A1 receptors. Kd values (high and low affinity) for phenylisopropyladenosine were higher in membranes from brown adipocytes. The Kd values for the antagonist dipropylcyclopentylxanthine were also higher in brown adipocyte membranes. 3. The effects of guanine nucleotides in converting adipocyte A1 receptors into a low-affinity state were enhanced by dithiothreitol.
