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

backgroundThe feasibility of a side-to-side jejunoileal anastomosis (SJA) to control type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) was studied in non-obese diabetic Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats.

methodsSeventeen 14-week-old male GK rats were divided into three groups: SJA bypassing 60% of the small bowel length, sham-operated jejunoileal bypass (Sham group), and control animals. Rats were observed for 10 weeks after surgery. Fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) were measured before and after the procedure.

resultsAnimals with SJA exhibited normalization of FBG levels from the 1st and up to the 10th postoperative week when the experiment terminated. OGTT compared with sham-operated and control groups was also significantly better at 3 and 8 weeks postoperatively.

conclusionsA simple SJA, diverting the food and biliopancreatic secretion to the distal small bowel, was able to normalize both FBG levels and OGTT in a non-obese diabetic rat model.
