Immune regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism.
Article in Diabetology international, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
The immune response and metabolic regulation are highly integrated, and their interface maintains a homeostatic system. Their dysfunction can cause obesity and its comorbidities, including insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is a central abnormality linking obesity, insulin resistance, and NAFLD. ER stress in response to increased hepatic lipids may decrease the ability of the liver to secrete triglyceride by limiting apolipoprotein B secretion, thereby worsening fatty liver. Overnutrition or obesity activates the innate immune system, with the subsequent recruitment of immune cells that contributes to the development of insulin resistance. A significant advance in our understanding of obesity-induced inflammation and insulin resistance has been a recognition of the critical role of adipose tissue macrophages. A role for chemokines, small proteins that direct the trafficking of immune cells to sites of inflammation, has also been demonstrated. Chemokines activate the production of inflammatory cytokines through specific chemokine receptors. This review highlights the chemokine systems linking obesity to inflammation and insulin resistance. Treatment options that target immune cells with the aim of halting the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes remain limited. DPP-4 inhibitors or micronutrients may contribute to the immune regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism by regulating macrophage polarization, thereby reducing insulin resistance and preventing the progression of NAFLD. A detailed understanding of the immune regulation of glucose and lipid homeostasis can lead to the development of a novel therapy for insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and NAFLD.
