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

Recent histological analyses of human brains show that small vessel-type injuries in the setting of type-2 diabetes colocalize with deposits of amylin, an amyloid-forming hormone secreted by the pancreas. Amylin inclusions are also identified in circulating red blood cells in people with type-2 diabetes and stroke or cardiovascular disease. In laboratory models of type-2 diabetes, accumulation of aggregated amylin in blood and the cerebral microvasculature induces brain microhemorrhages and reduces cerebral blood flow leading to white matter ischemia and neurological deficits. At the cellular level, aggregated amylin causes cell membrane lipid peroxidation injury, downregulation of tight junction proteins, and activation of proinflammatory signaling pathways which, in turn, induces macrophage activation and macrophage infiltration in vascular areas positive for amylin deposition. We review each step of this cascade based on experimental and clinical evidence and propose the hypothesis that systemic amylin dyshomeostasis may underlie the disparity between glycemic control and stroke risk and may be a therapeutic target to reduce the risk of small vessel ischemic stroke in patients with type-2 diabetes.
