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

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a condition marked by insulin resistance and hyperglycemia. Static training, as a form of exercise intervention, is increasingly demonstrating benefits for improving T2DM. However, the underlying mechanisms remain inadequately elucidated. Research suggests that insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF-2) could be a significant contributor to this phenomenon. In this study, static training significantly reduced fasting and random blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL, while increasing HDL and improving insulin sensitivity. Transcriptomics suggested that static training might regulate the IGF-2 pathway and related genes. WB and PCR results showed that IGF-2 expression was upregulated in the static training group, and IGF-2 inhibitors attenuated these effects, whereas IGF-2 overexpression enhanced them. In conclusion, static training improves insulin resistance in T2DM mice via the IGF-2/IGF-1R pathway, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic intervention.
