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

Background: In adults with prediabetes, it is estimated that 51.2% have atherogenic dyslipidemia with low HDL cholesterol, not always diagnosed or treated. The present study evaluates a new intervention adding a class I-II histone deacetylase inhibitor (Trichosanthin A) to the standard management of metformin to treat prediabetes and increase HDL cholesterol. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of Trichosanthin A and prolonged release metformin on the increase in HDL cholesterol in women with prediabetes. Material and methods: Double-blind randomized controlled trial with lifestyle management. Group 1 with histone I-II deacetylase inhibitor (Trichosanthin A) and extended-release metformin; group 2 with extended-release metformin and group 3 with placebo. The outcome variable HDL cholesterol evaluated at baseline and after 12 weeks. The study included women between 20-65 y.o., body mass index 25.0-34.9 with prediabetes. Results: The study sample was made up of 104 female patients, average age of 46 years (SD+8.6), average body mass index of 30.9 (SD + 4.14). In the Trichosanthin A and extended-release metformin group, an increase on HDL cholesterol was observed (2.92 mg/dL; p = 0.027). Conclusions: The histone I-II deacetylase inhibitor (Trichosanthin A) in addition to standard intensive lifestyle treatment and extended-release metformin significantly increases HDL cholesterol.
