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

Mao Jian Green Tea flavonoids (MJGT_F) contain luteolin, luteolin-7-O-glucoside, eriodictyol, and eriodictyol-7-O-glucoside, among which the first three components have hypoglycemic effects; however, the overall hypoglycemic potential of MJGT_F remains unclear. This study demonstrated that MJGT_F inhibited α-glucosidase in vitro and improved metabolic parameters in a dose-dependent manner in T2DM (type 2 diabetes mellitus) rats (reducing blood glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, insulin, and the homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance; increasing high-density lipoprotein, insulin sensitivity index, and glucagon-like peptide-1). High-dose MJGT_F (MJGT_F_H) showed optimal efficacy. Mechanistically, MJGT_F_H activated the AMPK pathway, evidenced by a significant increase in the p-AMPK/AMPK ratio and downregulation of hepatic gluconeogenic enzymes G6Pase and PEPCK. These coordinated effects collectively suggest enhanced hepatic glucose utilization and suppression of glucose overproduction. MJGT_F_H also modulated gut microbiota by enriching beneficial taxa (e.g.,
