Human Glucose Transporters in Health and Selected Neurodegenerative Diseases.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
Glucose is the main source of energy and the source of carbon for the biosynthesis of several molecules, such as neurotransmitters, for most mammalian cells. Therefore, the transport of glucose into cells is very important. There are described three distinct families of glucose transporters: facilitative glucose transporters (GLUTs), sodium-dependent glucose cotransporters (SGLTs), and a uniporter, the SWEET protein. Impaired function and/or expression of these transporters due to, for example, mutations in their genes, may cause severe diseases. Associations with the impaired function of glucose transporters have been described in the case of neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, GLUT1-deficiency syndrome, stroke, and traumatic brain injury. Changes in the presence of glucose transporters may be a cause of NDs, and they may be the effect of NDs. On the other hand, in many cases of neurodegenerative diseases, changes in the expression of glucose transporters may be a targeted therapy in the treatment of patients with these diseases.
