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

This study compares the effects of glibenclamide and creatine in type II diabetics. In a 14-day symmetrically randomized crossover trial recently detected type II diabetics received either creatine (3 g) or glibenclamide (3.5 mg) for five successive days, followed by two days of washout, and crossover to the opposite treatment. Glucose, insulin, c-peptide, and creatine were measured. Creatine and glibenclamide decreased glucose concentrations vs. basal glucose [-15, 60, 90, 120, 180, and 240 min; mol/l]: 12.6±0.83 vs. 12.2±0.56 vs. 12.1±0.57, 15.3±0.63 vs. 13.5± 0.70(a ) vs. 13.0±0.57(a), 14.8±0.57 vs. 13.8±0.59(a) vs. 13.4±0.46(a), 14.6±0.61 vs. 12.3±0.49(b) vs. 12.4±0.61(a), 12.8±0.76 vs. 10.0± 0.40(c) vs. 10.3±0.41(c), and 11.4±0.67 vs. 8.3±0.40(c) vs. 8.5±0.36(c); ((a) p<0.05; (b) p<0.01; (c) p<0.001 vs. basal glucose). Treatment with both creatine and glibenclamide increased insulin and c-peptide concentrations after 120 and 240 min (p<0.05 and p<0.01). At the doses applied short-term treatment with creatine and glibenclamide elicits similar glucose lowering effects.
