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

Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus have reached epidemic proportions worldwide. As the majority of antidiabetic medications are of limited efficacy and patient adherence to long-term therapy is one of the main limiting factors of effective blood glucose and body weight control, new therapies are still looked for. The DIAMOND system seems to be one of the most promising among them. This system recognizes natural electrical activity of the stomach and automatically applies electrical stimulation treatment during/after eating with subsequent modulation of signals transmitted to the regulatory centers in the brain in order to provoke an early response of the gut typical of a full meal. We present the case of a 47-year-old obese woman with type 2 diabetes. During treatment with this system, serum glucose and hemoglobin A1c levels significantly decreased. Body weight loss and waist circumference reduction were observed. Additionally, beneficial effect on lipid profile was found.
