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

Energy is continuously expended in the body, and gluconeogenesis maintains glucose homeostasis during starvation. Gluconeogenesis occurs in the liver and kidneys. The proximal tubule is the primary location for renal gluconeogenesis, accounting for up to 25% and 60% of endogenous glucose production during fasting and after a meal, respectively. The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR), which exists downstream of the insulin pathway, plays an important role in regulating proximal tubular gluconeogenesis. mTOR is an atypical serine/threonine kinase present in two complexes. mTORC1 phosphorylates substrates that enhance anabolic processes such as mRNA translation and lipid synthesis and catabolic processes such as autophagy. mTORC2 regulates cytoskeletal dynamics and controls ion transport and proliferation
