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

The parallel occurrence of improved glucose tolerance and increased glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) response to meal intake following metabolic surgery (MS) demonstrated in several studies has led to the notion that GLP-1 is the culprit for the impressive rates of remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) following MS. In this article, we critically review current evidence supporting this view. Recent studies specifically designed to elucidate a causative role of GLP-1 in the antidiabetic effects of MS call into question GLP-1 as a key player for T2DM outcome following MS procedures such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy in morbidly obese subjects. Whether GLP-1 plays a more prominent role in the remission of T2DM following MS in subjects with moderate obesity warrants further studies. Appraisal of the mechanisms involved in the amelioration of hyperglycemia following MS is a priority, as it could help in the battle against the current combined epidemics of obesity and T2DM.
