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

Both diabetes and osteoporosis are serious chronic conditions. Evidence is mounting that several bone-derived hormones play a role in glucose metabolism in patients with diabetes. Notably, novel biotargeted anti-osteoporotic agents have been recently found to reduce the risk of diabetes. This review explores the correlation of osteokines, including the receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL), sclerostin, and Dickkopf-1 (DKK1) with glycemic indicators in patients with diabetes, as well as the effects of their respective monoclonal antibodies on glucose metabolism and their possible mechanisms. Denosumab, the monoclonal antibody against RANKL, has been shown to reduce glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and the risk of diabetes, possibly by enhancing pancreatic β-cell survival and glucagon-like peptide-1 secretion. Sclerostin was positively correlated with HbA1c and may induce insulin resistance via endoplasmic reticulum stress. The association of DKK1 with fasting plasma glucose and HbA1c is still unclear, though decreasing DKK1 levels may correlate with β-cell survival. However, few studies have investigated the effects of antibodies against sclerostin or DKK1 on glucose metabolism. Further research is required to elucidate the influence of novel anti-osteoporotic biotargeted agents on glucose homeostasis in patients with diabetes and their underlying mechanisms.
