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

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) has become a worldwide epidemic, primarily driven by obesity from overnutrition and sedentariness. Recent results reveal there is heterogeneity in both pathology and treatment responses in T2D patients. Therefore, a variety of T2D animal models are necessary to obtain a mechanistic understanding of distinct disease processes. T2D results from insufficient insulin, either due to beta cell loss or inborn deficiency. Although decreases in beta cell mass can occur through loss of identity or cell death, in this review, we will highlight the T2D animal models that display beta cell death, including the Zucker Diabetic Fatty Rat, sand rat, db/db mouse, and a novel diabetic zebrafish model, the Zebrafish Muscle Insulin-Resistant (zMIR) fish. Procuring a mechanistic understanding of different T2D progression trajectories under a variety of contexts is paramount for developing and testing more individualized treatments.
