Your Brain on Insulin: From Heresy to Dogma.

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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
As recently as 1988, the idea that insulin might regulate cognitive and neural functions was, if not quite heretical, still seen as unlikely. As our ability to measure metabolic and molecular changes in the brain has improved, the hippocampus in particular has been revealed as a primary target for insulin. Today insulin is established as a key regulator of hippocampal fuel supply and a critical component of memory formation and storage within the hippocampus. Brain insulin signaling is a target for therapeutic intervention in patients with neuropsychological conditions such as Alzheimer's disease.
