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 regulation of glucose transporters (GLUT-1 and GLUT-3), in terms of both mRNA and protein, in human retinal endothelial cells was investigated. The cells responded within 1 h of exposure to 5 mM glucose with an increase in the level of GLUT-3 mRNA that was due to an increase in the transcription of the 4.1 kb mRNA of the gene for GLUT-3. In the absence of glucose, the gene for GLUT-1 was not transcribed but the level of GLUT-3 mRNA was increased in these conditions and this was the result of an increase in the transcription of the 4.1 kb mRNA. The level of GLUT-1 and GLUT-3 mRNA was maximal when the cells were exposed to 15 mM glucose. These results are discussed in the light of the glucose regulatory potential of the retinal microvasculature and the implications that this may have for the mechanisms of diabetic retinopathy.
