Impact of curcumin treatment on diabetic albino rats.
Article in Saudi journal of biological sciences, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 current study was aimed to study the effect of curcumin on the expression levels of brain glucose transporter 1 protein (GLUT1) and femoral muscle glucose transporter 4 protein (GLUT4), in addition to study its possible therapeutic role in ameliorating insulin resistance and the metabolic disturbance in the obese and type 2 diabetic male albino Wistar rat model. Diabetes was induced by a high-fat (HF) diet with low dose streptozotocin (STZ). Curcumin was administered intragastrically for 8 weeks (80 mg/kg BW/day). The HF-diet group developed obesity, hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, reduced liver glycogen content with significant dyslipidemia. In the diabetic control group, hyperglycemia and insulin resistance high calculated homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR-index score) were pronounced, with reductions in liver and muscle glycogen contents, concomitant with dyslipidemia and significantly elevated malondialdehyde levels in liver and pancreas.
