Metabolic effects of pioglitazone in chemically-induced mammary carcinogenesis in rats.

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
In this paper, the effect of peroral antidiabetic pioglitazone, a thiazolidinedione derivate, on selected parameters of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-induced mammary carcinogenesis in female Sprague-Dawley rats was evaluated. Pioglitazone was administered in the diet at two concentrations (10 ppm and 100 ppm), the chemoprevention was initiated 12 days before carcinogenesis induction and lasted until the termination of the experiment. The experiment was terminated 17 weeks after carcinogenesis induction, selected organs and tissues were removed and weighed and basic metabolic and hormonal parameters were determined. Pioglitazone increased glycemia (without exceeding normal values) and glycogen concentration in both liver and heart muscle without altering insulinemia and increased triacylglycerol concentration in liver, these changes were more prominent in group with higher dose. Pioglitazone also reduced corticosterone serum concentration and attenuated lipid peroxidation. Pioglitazone and other glitazones may be useful in alleviation of unfavourable metabolic changes in cancer patients.
