Correlation of Serum IGF-1R, VEGF, and ET Levels with Bone Mineral Density in Type 2 Diabetic Mellitus Patients Treated with Metformin Plus
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Diabetes mellitus is a common chronic disease. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between serum insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), endothelin (ET) levels, and bone mineral density (BMD) in type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) patients treated with metformin plus
