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

Insulin plays a crucial role in regulating the metabolism of blood glucose, amino acids (aa), and lipids in humans. However, the mechanisms by which insulin selectively regulates these metabolites are not fully understood. To address this question, we used mathematical modeling to identify the selective regulatory mechanisms of insulin on blood aa and lipids. Our study revealed that insulin negatively regulates the influx and positively regulates the efflux of lipids, consistent with previous findings. By contrast, we did not observe the previously reported insulin's negative regulation of branched-chain aa (BCAA) influx; instead, we found that insulin positively regulates BCAA efflux. We observed that the earlier peak time of lipids compared to BCAA is dependent on insulin's negative regulation of their influx. Overall, our findings shed new light on how insulin selectively regulates the levels of different metabolites in human blood, providing insights into the metabolic disorder pathogenesis and potential therapies.
