In Silico Screening of Therapeutic Targets as a Tool to Optimize the Development of Drugs and Nutraceuticals in the Treatment of Diabetes
Synthesis in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The Target-Based Virtual Screening approach is widely employed in drug development, with docking or molecular dynamics techniques commonly utilized for this purpose. This systematic review (SR) aimed to identify in silico therapeutic targets for treating Diabetes mellitus (DM) and answer the question: What therapeutic targets have been used in in silico analyses for the treatment of DM? The SR was developed following the guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items Checklist for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis, in accordance with the protocol registered in PROSPERO (CRD42022353808). Studies that met the PECo strategy (Problem, Exposure, Context) were included using the following databases: Medline (PubMed), Web of Science, Scopus, Embase, ScienceDirect, and Virtual Health Library. A total of 20 articles were included, which not only identified therapeutic targets in silico but also conducted in vivo analyses to validate the obtained results. The therapeutic targets most frequently indicated in in silico studies were GLUT4, DPP-IV, and PPARγ. In conclusion, a diversity of targets for the treatment of DM was verified through both in silico and in vivo reassessment. This contributes to the discovery of potential new allies for the treatment of DM.
