Computational insights into the inhibitory mechanism of type 2 diabetes mellitus by bioactive components of
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease categorized by hyperglycemia, resistance to insulin, and ß-cell dysfunction. Around the globe, approximately 422 million people have diabetes, out of which 1.5 million die annually. In spite of innovative advancements in the treatment of diabetes, no biological drug has been known to successfully cure and avert its progression. Thereupon, natural drugs derived from plants are emerging as a novel therapeutic strategy to combat diseases like diabetes. Objective: The current study aims to investigate the antidiabetic potential of natural compounds of Methods: Antioxidant activity and alpha amylase assays were performed to evaluate the therapeutic potential of the extract of Results: GC-MS of the plant extract provided a list of 184 compounds. Lipinski filter and toxicity parameters screened out 18 compounds. The topological parameters of the protein-protein interaction (PPI) were used to shortlist the nine key proteins (STAT3, HSP90AA1, AKT1, SRC, ESR1, MAPK1, NFKB1, EP300, and CREBBP) in the type 2 diabetes mellitus pathways. Later, molecular docking analysis and simulations showed that C14 (1H-purine-8-propanoic acid, .alpha.-amino-2, 3, 6, 7-tetrahydro-1,3,7-trimethyl-2,6-dioxo-) and C18 (cyclohexane-carboxamide, N-furfuryl) bind with AKT1 and ESR1 with a binding energy of 8.1, 6.9, 7.3, and 7.2 kcal/mol, respectively. RMSD (root-mean-square deviation) and RMSF (root-mean-square fluctuation) values for AKT1 and ESR1 have shown very little fluctuation, indicating that proteins were stabilized after ligand docking. Conclusion: This study suggests therapeutic drug candidates against AKT1 and ESR1 to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, further wet-lab analysis is required to discover the best remedy for type 2 diabetes mellitus.
