Insulin resistance, diabetes, and atherosclerosis: thiazolidinediones as therapeutic interventions.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The insulin resistance syndrome, a cluster of metabolic abnormalities involving dyslipidemia, hypertension, diabetes, impaired glucose tolerance, and hypercoagulability, carries an increased risk of atherosclerosis. Although interventions targeting elements of this syndrome have dramatically reduced cardiovascular risk, the impact of glucose-lowering has been more disappointing. Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) are a new class of insulin-sensitizing agents that activate the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-g. TZDs may improve not only glucose levels but also other metabolic parameters associated with insulin resistance. The TZD data are reviewed, with a focus on their potential cardiovascular effects.
