GHRH Neurons from the Ventromedial Hypothalamic Nucleus Provide Dynamic and Sex-Specific Input to the Brain Glucose-Regulatory Network.
Article in Neuroscience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
The ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMN) controls glucose counter-regulation, including pituitary growth hormone (GH) secretion. VMN neurons that express the transcription factor steroidogenic factor-1/NR5A1 (SF-1) participate in glucose homeostasis. Research utilized in vivo gene knockdown tools to determine if VMN growth hormone-releasing hormone (Ghrh) regulates hypoglycemic patterns of glucagon, corticosterone, and GH outflow according to sex. Intra-VMN Ghrh siRNA administration blunted hypoglycemic hypercorticosteronemia in each sex, but abolished elevated GH release in males only. Single-cell multiplex qPCR showed that dorsomedial VMN (VMNdm) Ghrh neurons express mRNAs encoding Ghrh, SF-1, and protein markers for glucose-inhibitory (γ-aminobutyric acid) or -stimulatory (nitric oxide; glutamate) neurotransmitters. Hypoglycemia decreased glutamate decarboxylase
