Antioxidant Nutrients and Diabetes and Its Complications: A Narrative Review on the Roles of Vitamin E, Vitamin C, and Selenium.
Review in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This narrative review summarizes the evidence on vitamin E, vitamin C, and selenium in preventing or mitigating diabetes, diabetic neuropathy, and associated complications. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in MEDLINE for English language studies from January 2000 to April 2025 using terms such as "vitamin E," "selenium", "antioxidant", "diabetes", and "neuropathy". Randomized clinical trials were included without grading restrictions. Antioxidants such as vitamin E, selenium, and vitamin C show potential in reducing oxidative stress, improving glycemic control, and alleviating diabetic complications. However, findings are inconsistent, emphasizing the need for personalized approaches and further trials to clarify their therapeutic roles. A balanced diet rich in antioxidant-containing foods continues to be recommended to support metabolic health and reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications.
