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

Consumption of fish oil-rich foods containing docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) can result in a low incidence of diabetes. The underlying mechanisms of these anti-hyperglycemic effects are ambiguous. This study aims to investigate the role of DHA in the prevention and treatment of type 1 diabetes in a murine model. Forty streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice were divided into control with diabetes, diabetes prevention (500 μg/kg DHA orally for 5 days) or diabetes treatment groups (DHA solvent in DMSO into the colon for 5 days). The groups were observed for 25 days after administration of DHA. Mice in the prevention and treatment group had shinier fur, increased body weight, significantly lower food and water intake and were more active compared with the control group with diabetes. Elevated insulin and liver SOD and T-AOC levels were also observed. Furthermore, islet cell apoptosis was reduced and islet cell GLP-1R expression increased.
