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
background
objectiveThis research was designed to determine the response of glucoregulatory hormones and enzymes to TO treatment.
methodsThirty-five male Wistar rats were divided into seven oral treatment groups (n = 5/group), which received either of 100 mg/kg or 200 mg/kg TO for 7-, 10- or 14 days.
resultsThe 7-day treatment with TO significantly increased the levels of insulin, glucagon, and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) activity but decreased the levels of glucose, adrenaline, and glucokinase (GCK) activity. The 10-day treatment with 100 mg/kg TO increased glucose and decreased GCK activity while 200 mg/kg for the same duration increased glucose, insulin, GCK and G6Pase activities but reduced glucagon. The 14-day treatment with 100 mg/kg TO decreased glucose and glucagon but increased cortisol, while 200 mg/kg TO for same duration increased insulin, but reduced glucagon and GCK activity.
conclusionThe TO's post-hypoglycaemic hyperglycaemia results from increased glucagon and G6Pase activity, and reduced GCK activity. Moreover, the glucagon response mainly depends on glucose rather than insulin.
