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

Human beta-cell glucokinase and its liver counterpart displayed a half-saturating concentration of glucose (S0.5) of about 8 mmol/l and a Hill coefficient of 1.7, and were as sensitive to inhibition by the rat liver regulatory protein as the rat liver enzyme. These results indicate that the N-terminal region of glucokinase, which differs among these three enzymes, is not implicated in the recognition of the regulatory protein. They also suggest that the regulatory protein, or a related protein, could modulate the affinity of glucokinase for glucose in beta cells. We have also tested the effect of several mutations, many of which are implicated in maturity onset diabetes of the young. The mutations affected the affinity for glucose and for the regulatory protein to different degrees, indicating that the binding site for these molecules is different. An Asp158 Ala mutation, found in the expression plasmid previously thought to encode the wild-type enzyme, increased the affinity for glucose by about 2.5-fold without changing the affinity for the regulatory protein. The mutations that were found to decrease the affinity for the regulatory protein (Asn166 Arg. Val203 Ala, Asn204 Gln, Lys414 Ala) clustered in the hinge region of glucokinase and nearby in the large and small domains. These results are in agreement with the concept that part of the binding site for the regulatory protein is situated in the hinge region of this enzyme.
