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

objectiveRoux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB) improves the first phase of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in patients with type 2 diabetes. How it does so remains unclear. Farnesoid X receptor (FXR), the nuclear receptor of bile acids (BAs), is implicated in bariatric surgery. Moreover, the transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channel is expressed in pancreatic β-cells and involved in insulin secretion. We aimed to explore the role of BAs/FXR and TRPA1 in improved GSIS in diabetic rats after RYGB.

methodsRYGB or sham surgery was conducted in spontaneous diabetic Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats, or FXR or TRPA1 transgenic mice. Gene and protein expression of islets were assessed by qPCR and western blotting. Electrophysiological properties of single β-cells were studied using patch-clamp technique. Binding of FXR and histone acetyltransferase steroid receptor coactivator-1 (SRC1) to the TRPA1 promoter, acetylated histone H3 (ACH3) levels at the TRPA1 promoter were determined using ChIP assays. GSIS was measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays or intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT).

resultsRYGB increases GSIS, particularly the first-phase of GSIS in both intact islets and GK rats in vivo, and ameliorates hyperglycemia of GK rats. Importantly, the effects of RYGB were attenuated in TRPA1-deficient mice. Moreover, GK β-cells displayed significantly decreased TRPA1 expression and current. Patch-clamp recording revealed that TRPA1

conclusionsThe BAs/FXR/SRC1 axis-mediated restoration of TRPA1 expression plays a critical role in the enhanced GSIS and remission of diabetes in GK rats after RYGB.
