The effect of liraglutide on endothelial function in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Trial report in Diabetes & vascular disease research, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It reports registered trial NCT00620282. Cited by 22 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
This single-centre, 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial assessed how the human glucagon-like-peptide 1 analogue liraglutide impacted endothelial function in adult patients (n = 49) with type 2 diabetes and no overt cardiovascular disease. Patients were randomized to liraglutide, placebo or glimepiride. At baseline and Week 12, venous occlusion plethysmography was used to measure forearm blood flow (FBF) in response to acetylcholine (ACh) and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) before and after (L)-N(G)-monomethyl arginine (L-NMMA) infusion. At Week 12, ACh-mediated FBF increased with liraglutide and decreased with placebo; however, the between-treatment difference was not significant (p = 0.055). Inhibition of ACh-mediated FBF after L-NMMA infusion increased with liraglutide and decreased with placebo; this between-treatment difference was also not significant (p = 0.149). No change in FBF was observed with SNP. Liraglutide did not significantly impact endothelium-dependent vasodilation after 12 weeks; however, additional investigations looking at the effect of liraglutide on endothelial function in alternative vasculature and during the postprandial period are warranted.
