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

Hyperuricemia is a common comorbidity in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), as insulin resistance (IR) or hyperinsulinemia is associated with higher serum uric acid (SUA) levels due to decreased uric acid (UA) secretion, and SUA vice versa is an important risk factor that promotes the occurrence and progression of T2DM and its complications. Growing evidence suggests that sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i), a novel anti-diabetic drug initially developed to treat T2DM, may exert favorable effects in reducing SUA. Currently, one of the possible mechanisms is that SGLT2i increases urinary glucose excretion, probably inhibiting glucose transport 9 (GLUT9)-mediated uric acid reabsorption in the collecting duct, resulting in increased uric acid excretion in exchange for glucose reabsorption. Regardless of this possible mechanism, the underlying comprehensive mechanisms remain poorly elucidated. Therefore, in the present review, a variety of other potential mechanisms will be covered to identify the therapeutic role of SGLT-2i in hyperuricemia.
