Sex Dimorphic Glucose Transporter-2 Regulation of Hypothalamic Astrocyte Glucose and Energy Sensor Expression and Glycogen Metabolism.
Article in Neurochemical research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
The plasma membrane glucose transporter-2 (GLUT2) monitors brain cell uptake of the critical nutrient glucose, and functions within astrocytes of as-yet-unknown location to control glucose counter-regulation. Hypothalamic astrocyte-neuron metabolic coupling provides vital cues to the neural glucostatic network. Current research utilized an established hypothalamic primary astrocyte culture model along with gene knockdown tools to investigate whether GLUT2 imposes sex-specific regulation of glucose/energy sensor function and glycogen metabolism in this cell population. Data show that GLUT2 stimulates or inhibits glucokinase (GCK) expression in glucose-supplied versus -deprived male astrocytes, but does not control this protein in female.
