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

purposeAnthocyanins (ACNs) are polyphenols that might reduce pathological processes associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus and other chronic diseases, but their bioavailability is still controversial. In this study, the metabolic activity of oral delivery of ACN-loaded niosomes was investigated and evaluated in a diet-induced obesity (DIO) mice model.

methodsACNs extracted from Vaccinium Meridionale by the supercritical fluid extraction method were loaded in niosomes. The niosomal formulation was physically characterized and further administrated in drinking water to obese, insulin resistant mouse. We evaluated the effect of ACN loaded niosomes on hyperglycemia, glucose and insulin intolerance and insulin blood levels in C57BL/6 J mice fed with a high-fat diet.

resultsThe ACN-loaded particles were moderately monodisperse, showed a negative surface charge and 57% encapsulation efficiency. The ACN-loaded niosomes ameliorated the insulin resistance and glucose intolerance in the DIO mice model. Additionally, they reduced animal weight and plasma insulin, glucose, leptin and total cholesterol levels in obese mice.

conclusionACN-loaded niosomes administration, as a functional drink, had a beneficial effect on the reversal of metabolic abnormalities associated with obesity.
