The effect of spermidine on autoimmunity and beta cell function in NOD mice.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Spermidine is a natural polyamine which was shown to prolong lifespan of organisms and to improve cardiac and cognitive function. Spermidine was also reported to reduce inflammation and modulate T-cells. Autophagy is one of the mechanisms that spermidine exerts its effect. Autophagy is vital for β-cell homeostasis and autophagy deficiency was reported to lead to exacerbated diabetes in mice. The effect of spermidine in type 1 diabetes pathogenesis remains to be elucidated. Therefore, we examined the effect of spermidine treatment in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, a mouse model for type 1 diabetes. NOD mice were given untreated or spermidine-treated water ad libitum from 4 weeks of age until diabetes onset or 35 weeks of age. We found that treatment with 10 mM spermidine led to higher diabetes incidence in NOD mice despite unchanged pancreatic insulitis. Spermidine modulated tissue polyamine levels and elevated signs of autophagy in pancreas. Spermidine led to increased proportion of pro-inflammatory T-cells in pancreatic lymph nodes (pLN) in diabetic mice. Spermidine elevated the proportion of regulatory T-cells in early onset mice, whereas it reduced the proportion of regulatory T-cells in late onset mice. In summary spermidine treatment led to higher diabetes incidence and elevated proportion of T-cells in pLN.
