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

Purpose: To assess the effect of empagliflozin on the expression of SGLT-2 and GLUT-1 in the chorioretina of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Methods: An Results: SGLT-2 was expressed in the chorioretinal tissue of all groups; administration of SGLT-2 inhibitors could suppress its expression. The average band thickness indicated that SGLT-2 expression was higher in diabetic rats compared to rats with normal sugar levels. GLUT-1 expression was noticed in all groups based on the chorioretinal examination. It did not change in the metformin group, whereas the empagliflozin group showed a significant decrease in the GLUT-1 expression. Conclusion: Both metformin and empagliflozin suppress the expression of SGLT-2 and GLUT-1 in the chorioretina of diabetic rats. In comparison, empagliflozin seems to be more potent in reducing this expression.
