Bromocriptine as a Potential Glucose-lowering Agent for the Treatment of Prolactinoma with Type 2 Diabetes.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
A 22-year-old Japanese woman consulted an endocrinologist due to persistent galactorrhea for the past 10 months. She had hyperprolacinemia and had previously been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus based on her glycohemoglobin level of 11.6%. After two months, she was admitted to our hospital and finally diagnosed with prolactinoma. For the treatment of prolactinoma, bromocriptine 2.5 mg/day was started. After seven days, her post-prandial blood glucose levels, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance and plasma C-peptide levels were significantly improved. These results indicate that traditional bromocriptine can be an effective therapeutic alternative in patients with prolactinoma complicated with type 2 diabetes.
