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

Using a composite model of the glucose homeostasis system, consisting of seven interconnected submodels, we enumerate the possible behaviours of the model in response to variation of liver insulin sensitivity and dietary glucose variability. The model can reproduce published experimental manipulations of the glucose homeostasis system and clearly illustrates several important properties of glucose homeostasis-boundedness in model parameters of the region of efficient homeostasis, existence of an insulin sensitivity that allows effective homeostatic control and the importance of transient and oscillatory behaviour in characterizing homeostatic failure. Bifurcation analysis shows that the appearance of a stable limit cycle can be identified.
