Is the evidence from clinical trials for cardiovascular risk or harm for glitazones convincing?
Review in Current diabetes reports, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Thiazolidinediones (TZDs), agonists of the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma, induce the expression of many genes, including several enzymes and transporters involved in glucose and lipid metabolism. Although the efficacy of TZDs on blood glucose control in type 2 diabetes is not questionable, their cardiovascular effects have been debated, with beneficial or harmful actions suggested by different authors. This article reviews the available clinical evidence on the cardiovascular effects of TZDs, discussing possible mechanisms underlying the observed effects and suggesting some directions for future research.
