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

Osteocalcin has been considered to be an important regulator of energy metabolism in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the mechanism underlying the involvement of uncarboxylated osteocalcin in the vascular complications of T2DM is not fully understood. In the present study, we analyzed the potential correlations between uncarboxylated osteocalcin and macro- or microangiopathic complications in subjects with T2DM and tested the impact of uncarboxylated osteocalcin on insulin resistance in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The results showed that the serum levels of uncarboxylated osteocalcin were lower in subjects with vascular complications of T2DM. Univariate correlation analyses revealed negative correlations between uncarboxylated osteocalcin and waist-to-hip ratio, HbA1c, and HOMA-IR. In in vitro experiments, insulin resistance was induced by applying tunicamycin to HUVECs. Uncarboxylated osteocalcin not only markedly reduced the phosphorylations of PERK and eIF2α, but also elevated the phosphorylations of IRS-1 and Akt, resulting in improvement of insulin signal transduction via PI3K/Akt/NF-κB signaling in HUVECs. Therefore, there is a possible relationship between uncarboxylated osteocalcin and the vascular complications of T2DM. Uncarboxylated osteocalcin partially improves insulin signal transduction via PI3K/Akt/NF-κB signaling in tunicamycin-induced HUVECs, suggesting osteocalcin as a potential treatment for the vascular complications of T2DM.
