Hyperglycemia enhances coagulation and reduces neutrophil degranulation, whereas hyperinsulinemia inhibits fibrinolysis during human endotoxemia.

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
Type 2 diabetes is associated with altered immune and hemostatic responses. We investigated the selective effects of hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia on innate immune, coagulation, and fibrinolytic responses during systemic inflammation. Twenty-four healthy humans were studied for 8 hours during clamp experiments in which either plasma glucose, insulin, both, or none was increased, depending on randomization. Target plasma concentrations were 5 versus 12 mM for glucose, and 100 versus 400 pmol/L for insulin. After 3 hours, 4 ng/kg Escherichia coli endotoxin was injected intravenously to induce a systemic inflammatory and procoagulant response. Endotoxin administration induced cytokine release, activation of neutrophils, endothelium and coagulation, and inhibition of fibrinolysis. Hyperglycemia reduced neutrophil degranulation (plasma elastase levels, P < .001) and exaggerated coagulation (plasma concentrations of thrombin-antithrombin complexes and soluble tissue factor, both P < .001). Hyperinsulinemia attenuated fibrinolytic activity due to elevated plasminogen activator-inhibitor-1 levels (P < .001). Endothelial cell activation markers and cytokine concentrations did not differ between clamps. We conclude that in humans with systemic inflammation induced by intravenous endotoxin administration hyperglycemia impairs neutrophil degranulation and potentiates coagulation, whereas hyperinsulinemia inhibits fibrinolysis. These data suggest that type 2 diabetes patients may be especially vulnerable to prothrombotic events during inflammatory states.
