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

Skeletal muscle glucose uptake, essential for metabolic health, is regulated by both insulin and exercise. Using phosphoproteomics, we analyze skeletal muscle from healthy individuals following acute exercise or insulin stimulation, generating a valuable dataset. We identify 71 phosphosites on 55 proteins regulated by both stimuli in the same direction, suggesting a convergence of exercise and insulin signaling pathways. Among these, the vesicle-associated protein, REPS1, is highly phosphorylated at Ser709 in response to both stimuli. We identify p90 ribosomal S6 kinase (RSK) to be a key upstream kinase of REPS1 S709 phosphorylation and that the RSK-REPS1 signaling axis is involved in insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. Insulin-induced REPS1 Ser709 phosphorylation is closely linked to muscle and whole-body insulin sensitivity and is impaired in insulin-resistant mice and humans. These findings highlight REPS1 as a convergence point for insulin and exercise signaling, presenting a potential therapeutic target for treating individuals with insulin resistance.
