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

We have previously demonstrated that enalapril, α-lipoic acid and menhaden (fish) oil has potential as a treatment for diabetic peripheral neuropathy. In this study we sought to determine the efficacy of these treatments individually or in combination on multiple neuropathic endpoints in a high fat fed low dose streptozotocin treated mouse, a model of type 2 diabetes, following early or late intervention. Four or twelve weeks after the onset of hyperglycemia, diabetic mice were treated with enalapril, α-lipoic acid, menhaden oil or their combination for 12 weeks. Afterwards, endpoints including glucose tolerance, motor and sensory nerve conduction velocity, thermal nociception, and intraepidermal and cornea nerve fiber density was determined. Glucose clearance was impaired in diabetic mice and significantly improved only with combination treatment and early intervention. Diabetes caused steatosis, slowing of motor and sensory nerve conduction velocity, thermal hypoalgesia and reduction in intraepidermal and cornea nerve fiber density. Treating diabetic mice with enalapril, α-lipoic acid or menhaden oil partially protected diabetic mice from these deficits, whereas the combination of these three treatments was more efficacious following early or late intervention. These studies suggest that a combination therapy may be more effective for treating neural complications of type 2 diabetes.
