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

Islet β cell death has been proved to contribute to diabetes. Studies suggest that the activation of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB)-inducing kinase (NIK) is involved in the β cell dysfunction encountered in obesity. However, the pathological significance of NIK activation in diabetes remains largely unknown. Here, we report that β cell-specific overexpression of NIK (β-NIK-OE) results in spontaneous diabetes in male mice at a young age (≥10 weeks of age), which is likely due to insulin deficiency, β cell death, and insulitis. Importantly, inhibiting the kinase activation of NIK by the small molecule B022 prevents NIK- or H
