A non-inferiority study to compare daily fast-acting insulin versus twice a week slow-acting insulin-moderate diabetes mode.

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
Purpose Given the high prevalence of diabetes (D), several animal models have been analyzed. In the literature, most of the animal models have studied severe D. However, in clinical practice, most patients have moderate disease. Therefore, the present study aimed to describe a moderate D condition. Methods We analyzed 20 Wistar rats, age eight-weeks, weight between 200g-250g. All animals received an intravenous injection of Streptozotocin (55mg/kg weight). On the 15th day after D induction, the animals were divided into two groups: Group I - animals receiving a single daily dose of fast-acting insulin (FAIG) NPH (1UI,SC) for partial glycemic control, and Group II - animals receiving slow-acting insulin(SAIG) twice a week. We measured glycemia, weight, and adverse events every week during two months. Results Of the total of animals analyzed in the study, three animals died in the FAIG and two animals died in the SAIG. Regarding the glycemic level, results were 339.5 ± 125.4mg/dL (95CI 302.3402 to 376.6842) in the FAIG, and 367.8 ± 66.1mg/dL (95IC 333.7607 to 401.8978) in the SAIG. There was no difference between groups as to weight during the study. Conclusion The use of slow-acting-insulin is not inferior to the use of fast-acting-insulin in the management of partially insulin-controlled moderate diabetes in rats.
