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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsThe aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA), exenatide, on clozapine-associated glucose dysregulation in mice. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe randomly separated B6 male mice into four groups (A to D). Mice in groups C and D received a daily oral dose of 13.5 mg/kg body weight of clozapine for 4 months. Mice in groups B and D received 1 μg of exenatide daily. The body weight and blood glucose before and 2 h after clozapine treatment were measured twice a week. Intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT) scores and the amount of daily food intake were recorded. The pancreases of the mice were removed for insulin content (PIC) measurement and histological examination after sacrifice.

resultsThe mean non-fasting blood glucose levels were not different, and the mean changes in blood glucose 2 h after oral clozapine were 0 ± 4, -40 ± 2, 25 ± 3, and -39 ± 2, in groups A to D, respectively. There was no significant difference in daily calorie intake or area under the curve of IPGTT among the four groups. At sacrifice, the PIC of mice treated with clozapine was significantly lower than that of the control mice, however the PIC was completely restored in the mice treated with exenatide. Histological examination of the pancreas revealed that exenatide treatment reversed the clozapine-induced apoptosis of islet cells.

conclusionOur results provide preclinical evidence of a pharmaceutical role of GLP-1RA in managing glucose dysregulation in schizophrenic patients under long-term atypical antipsychotic treatments.
