Magnesium-responsive genes are downregulated in diabetic patients after a three-month exercise program on a bicycle ergometer.
Article in Journal of the Chinese Medical Association : JCMA, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundExercise is an effective therapy for the management of diabetes because it helps regulate glucose and magnesium homeostasis. Nevertheless, the mechanisms by which exercise exerts effects on magnesium transport remain unclear. This study investigated the expression of genes encoding magnesium transporters (GMTs) after a three-month exercise program in diabetic patients.
methodsThis study was conducted with a within-subject pre-post design. A total of 15 adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were recruited and underwent a three-month indoor bicycle exercise program. The expression of five GMTs (CNNM2, TRPM6, TRPM7, SLC41A1, and SLC41A3) was determined in blood samples. Relevant anthropometric values and biochemical parameters were also determined.
resultsAlthough the body weight and body mass index decreased after three months exercise, there were no significant differences. Fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), waist circumference, and magnesium levels decreased after the exercise program (p < 0.05). The expression of SLC41A1 and SLC41A3 were downregulated after exercise, but only CNNM2, TRPM6, and TRPM7 showed significantly decreased expression levels compared with those before the exercise program (p < 0.05).
conclusionThe three-month exercise program ameliorated blood glucose levels and downregulated the expression of magnesium-responsive genes in patients with T2DM.
