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

backgroundEndocrinopathic laminitis develops in association with insulin dysregulation, but the role of insulin in the pathogenesis remains unclear. Hyperinsulinemia can cause hypoaminoacidemia, which is associated with integumentary lesions in other species and therefore warrants investigation as a potential mechanism in laminitis.

objectiveEvaluate plasma amino acid concentrations in the euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp (EHC) and prolonged glucose infusion (PGI) laminitis models. ANIMALS: Sixteen Standardbred horses.

methodsProspective experimental study. Plasma amino acid concentrations were measured in samples collected every 6 hours from horses that underwent a 48-hour EHC (n = 8) or 66-hour PGI (n = 8) after a 24- or 6-hour baseline period in EHC and PGI groups, respectively.

resultsFifteen of the 20 measured amino acid concentrations decreased over time in both EHC and PGI horses (P < 0.001). The median percentage change from baseline for these amino acids was: histidine (EHC: 41.5%; PGI: 43.9%), glutamine (EHC: 51.8%; PGI: 35.3%), arginine (EHC: 51.4%; PGI: 41%), glutamic acid (EHC: 52.4%; PGI: 31.7%), threonine (EHC: 62.8%; PGI: 25.2%), alanine (EHC: 48.9%; PGI: 19.5%), proline (EHC: 56.2%; PGI: 30.3%), cystine (EHC: 34.9%; PGI: 31.2%), lysine (EHC: 46.4%; PGI: 27.8%), tyrosine (EHC: 27.5%; PGI: 16.9%), methionine (EHC: 69.3%; PGI: 50.8%), valine (EHC: 50.8%; PGI: 34.4%), isoleucine (EHC: 60.8%; PGI: 38.7%), leucine (EHC: 48.2%; PGI: 36.6%), and phenylalanine (EHC: 16.6%; PGI: 12.1%). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Hypoaminoacidemia develops in EHC and PGI laminitis models. The role of hypoaminoacidemia in the development of hyperinsulinemia-associated laminitis warrants further investigation.
