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

backgroundIn non-insulin-dependent, type 2, diabetes mellitus (T2D), glucose metabolism is compromised, and the heart loses its metabolic flexibility. The Zucker Diabetic Fatty rat (ZDF) model, which replicates the pathophysiology of T2D in patients, shows that as T2D progresses so does heart failure. Heart ketone metabolism seems to play a role in mitigating the heart failure process. This study assesses ketone metabolism in a ZDF heart failure model using cardiac PET imaging.

methodsSix lean ZDF rats (CTRL) and six diabetic obese ZDF rats (T2D) were evaluated for coronary flow reserve (CFR) using [

resultsCFR was impaired in the T2D model (CTRL: 1.8 ± 0.5; T2D: 1.4 ± 0.2, p < 0.05) suggesting the development of heart failure in the T2D model. Blood ketones increased more than 2-fold after supplementation. The [

conclusionIn a rat model of T2D and CFR impairment, we were able to measure changes in ketone metabolism using [
