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 key regulatory enzymes of glycogenolysis are phosphorylase kinase, a hetero-oligomer with four different types of subunits, and glycogen phosphorylase, a homodimer. Both enzymes are activated by phosphorylation and small ligands, and both enzymes have distinct isoforms that are predominantly expressed in muscle, liver, or brain; however, whole-transcriptome high-throughput sequencing analyses show that in brain both of these enzymes are likely composed of subunit isoforms representing all three tissues. This Minireview examines the regulatory properties of the isoforms of these two enzymes expressed in the three tissues, focusing on their potential regulatory similarities and differences. Additionally, the activity, structure, and regulation of the remaining enzyme necessary for glycogenolysis, glycogen-debranching enzyme, are also reviewed.
