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

aimType 2 diabetes (T2D) is a major complication of obesity and a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Antagonizing bradykinin type 1 receptor (B1R) improved body and tissue fat mass and reversed vascular and adipose tissue inflammation in a rat model of insulin resistance. This study aimed at evaluating further the role of B1R in a mouse model of T2D by comparing the antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory effects of the B1R antagonist SSR240612 (SSR) in adipose tissue with those of pioglitazone (TZD), an activator of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma.

methodsC57BL/6J mice were fed with high-fat diet (HFD) or standard diet (control) for 20 weeks. Yet, during the last 4 weeks, HFD-fed mice were administered SSR and TZD (10 mg kg

resultsSSR240612 and TZD treatments improved hyperglycaemia, hyperinsulinaemia, insulin resistance, adipose tissue inflammation (expression of B1R, chemokine ligand 2, F4/80 and tumour necrosis factor) and modulated adipogenesis (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma, adipocytes' protein 2 and CD40 expressions) in HFD-fed mice. Yet, SSR was more effective than TZD to reduce visceral fat mass and resistin. TZD/SSR combined treatment had an additive effect to improve insulin sensitivity and glucose intolerance.

conclusionBradykinin type 1 receptor antagonism could represent a promising therapeutic tool in combination with TZD for the treatment of T2D, obesity and insulin resistance.
