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

Recent progress in research on glucagon and α-cells highlights their pathophysiological roles in diabetes. We previously showed that plasma glucagon levels measured by newly developed enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were dysregulated in patients with type 1 diabetes with respect to plasma glucose levels, suggesting dysregulated secretion. In the current study, the annual change in plasma glucagon levels was assessed in these same patients. We found that the plasma glucagon levels in the 66 Japanese patients involved in the study were significantly correlated between both years. In addition, they were significantly associated with serum blood urea nitrogen levels in a multivariate linear regression analysis, as reported in our previous study. The statistical correlation in glucagon levels between annual checkups and the sustained significant correlation between glucagon and blood urea nitrogen suggest a constant dysregulation of glucagon in association with altered amino acid metabolism in patients with type 1 diabetes.
