Navigating the Intersection of Glycemic Control and Fertility: A Network Perspective.
Article 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 1 paper.
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 rising incidence of metabolic diseases is linked to elevated blood glucose levels, contributing to conditions such as diabetes and promoting the accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). AGEs, formed by non-enzymatic reactions between sugars and proteins, build up in tissues and are implicated in various diseases. This article explores the relationship between glycemic control and AGE accumulation, focusing on fertility implications. A computational model using network theory was developed, featuring a molecular database and a network with 145 nodes and 262 links, categorized as a Barabasi-Albert scale-free network. Three main subsets of nodes emerged, centered on glycemic control, fertility, and immunity, with AGEs playing a critical role. The transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), a receptor expressed in several tissues including sperm, was identified as a key hub, suggesting that the modulation of TRPV1 in sperm by AGEs may influence fertility. Additionally, a novel link between glycemic control and immunity was found, indicating that immune cells may play a role in endocytosing specific AGEs. This discovery underscores the complex interplay between glycemic control and immune function, with significant implications for metabolic, immune health, and fertility.
