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

A high sucrose and high fat (HSHF) diet induces insulin resistance (IR) and increased susceptibility to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), but the underlying mechanisms are poorly characterized. This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms by which the HSHF diet impairs insulin sensitivity in Bama miniature pigs (sus scrofa domesticus). Twelve Bama miniature pigs were randomly assigned to the control diet (CD) group (n=6) or the HSHF group (n=6) for 6 months. Biochemical parameters were measured. Western blot, RT-qPCR and immunohistochemistry were used to profile the changes of protein expression, mRNA expression and glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) expression in skeletal muscle tissues, respectively. In comparison to the CD group, the homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index of the HSHF group demonstrated a 2.9-fold increase, and the insulin sensitivity showed a 24.8% decrease. Compared with the CD group, p-Akt S473 decreased by approximately 59% and GLUT4 decreased by 43.8% in the skeletal muscle of the HSHF group. However, the expression of p-mTOR S2448 between the 2 groups was not significantly different (P=0.309). This study demonstrates that a 6-month HSHF diet caused IR, decreased insulin sensitivity, and reduced the expression of p-Akt S473 and GLUT4 in the skeletal muscle of Bama miniature pigs.
