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

Cardiometabolic disease is a leading cause of death worldwide. One factor that may contribute to the risk, onset, and severity of symptoms is disrupted circadian rhythms. Our study uses two strains of mice to further elucidate this relationship: healthy controls, and a mouse model of insulin resistance with short freerunning periods (~ 22.75 h) and enlarged hearts, raised in either a 24-h or 22.75-h LD cycle. Through glucose and insulin tolerance tests, routine electrocardiograms from one to four months old, and histology, we reveal worse cardiometabolic health outcomes for mice gestated and housed in a mismatched LD cycle compared to those in an LD cycle that matches their endogenous rhythm. This was characterized by heightened blood glucose levels following a glucose or insulin bolus, altered electrophysiological parameters of the cardiac waveform, and increased cardiomyocyte size. Circadian disruption due to work/social schedules or circadian-related disorders in people is often confounded with other unhealthy lifestyles. The present study demonstrates that circadian disruption on its own can lead to adverse health states.
