Mathematical modeling of the glucagon challenge test.
Article in Journal of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
A model for the homeostasis of glucose through the regulating hormones glucagon and insulin is described. It contains a subsystem that models the internalization of the glucagon receptor. Internalization is a mechanism in cell signaling, through which G-protein coupled receptors are taken from the surface of the cell to the endosome. The model is used to interpret data from a glucagon challenge test in which subjects have been under treatment with a novel glucagon receptor anti-sense drug which is aimed at reducing the number of receptors in the liver. It is shown how the receptor internalization results in tolerance of the blood glucose concentration to glucagon-induced hyperglycemia. We quantify the reduction of the number of receptors using the model and the data before and after treatment.
