Effects of Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter 2 Inhibitors on Vascular Cell Function and Arterial Remodeling.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 62 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in diabetes. Recent clinical studies indicate that sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors improve cardiovascular outcomes in patients with diabetes. The mechanism underlying the beneficial effect of SGLT2 inhibitors is not completely clear but may involve direct actions on vascular cells. SGLT2 inhibitors increase the bioavailability of endothelium-derived nitric oxide and thereby restore endothelium-dependent vasodilation in diabetes. In addition, SGLT2 inhibitors favorably regulate the proliferation, migration, differentiation, survival, and senescence of endothelial cells (ECs). Moreover, they exert potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in ECs. SGLT2 inhibitors also inhibit the contraction of vascular smooth muscle cells and block the proliferation and migration of these cells. Furthermore, studies demonstrate that SGLT2 inhibitors prevent postangioplasty restenosis, maladaptive remodeling of the vasculature in pulmonary arterial hypertension, the formation of abdominal aortic aneurysms, and the acceleration of arterial stiffness in diabetes. However, the role of SGLT2 in mediating the vascular actions of these drugs remains to be established as important off-target effects of SGLT2 inhibitors have been identified. Future studies distinguishing drug- versus class-specific effects may optimize the selection of specific SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with distinct cardiovascular pathologies.
