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

Glycogen phosphorylase (GP) is a key enzyme in the glycogenolysis pathway and a potential therapeutic target in the management of type 2 diabetes. It catalyzes a reversible reaction: the release of the terminal glucosyl residue from glycogen as glucose 1-phosphate; or the transfer of glucose from glucose 1-phosphate to glycogen. A colorimetric method to follow in vitro the activity of GP with usefulness in structure-activity relationship studies and high-throughput screening capability is herein described. The obtained results allowed the choice of the optimal concentration of enzyme of 0.38 U/mL, 0.25 mM glucose 1-phosphate, 0.25 mg/mL glycogen, and temperature of 37 °C. Three known GP inhibitors, CP-91149, a synthetic inhibitor, caffeine, an alkaloid, and ellagic acid, a polyphenol, were used to validate the method, CP-91149 being the most active inhibitor. The effect of glucose on the IC
