Starving a Cell Promotes Airway Smooth Muscle Relaxation: Inhibition of Glycolysis Attenuates Excitation-Contraction Coupling.
Article in American journal of respiratory cell and molecular biology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Bronchomotor tone modulated by airway smooth muscle shortening represents a key mechanism that increases airway resistance in asthma. Altered glucose metabolism in inflammatory and airway structural cells is associated with asthma. Although these observations suggest a causal link between glucose metabolism and airway hyperresponsiveness, the mechanisms are unclear. We hypothesized that glycolysis modulates excitation-contraction coupling in human airway smooth muscle (HASM) cells. Cultured HASM cells from human lung donors were subject to metabolic screenings using Seahorse XF cell assay. HASM cell monolayers were treated with vehicle or PFK15 (1-(Pyridin-4-yl)-3-(quinolin-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one), an inhibitor of PFKFB3 (PFK-1,6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 3) that generates an allosteric activator for glycolysis rate-limiting enzyme PFK1 (phosphofructokinase 1), for 5-240 minutes, and baseline and agonist-induced phosphorylation of MLC (myosin light chain), MYPT1 (myosin phosphatase regulatory subunit 1), Akt, RhoA, and cytosolic Ca
