Effects of novel glucose-lowering drugs on the lipid parameters: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Review in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Aim: We aim to evaluate the impacts of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2), glucagon-like peptide 1 agonist (GLP-1RAs), and dipeptidyl peptidase-four (DPP4) inhibitors on the levels of high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, triglyceride and total cholesterol. Methods: The MEDLINE database was searched from inception till October 2021, for randomized controlled trials assessing the effects of sodium-glucose co-transporter two inhibitors (SGLT-2), glucagon-like peptide 1 agonist (GLP-1RAs), and dipeptidyl peptidase-four (DPP4) inhibitors on lipid levels. Results: A total of 57 trials were included in the analysis. Our pooled analysis demonstrates that SGLT-2 inhibitors significantly increase the levels of HDL (WMD = 0.07 mg/dL [0.06 to 0.08], P < 0.00001). SGLT-2 inhibitors were also found to be significantly associated with an increase in the levels of LDL (WMD = 0.11 mg/dL, [0.09-0.13 mg/dL, P < 0.00001). Pooled analysis also demonstrates that SGLT-2 inhibitors significantly reduce the levels of triglyceride (WMD = -0.10 mg/dL, [-0.13 to -0.06], P < 0.00001). Our pooled analysis demonstrates that SGLT-2 inhibitors significantly increased the levels of total cholesterol (WMD = 0.10 mg/dL, [0.06 to 0.15], P < 0.0001), whereas, GLP-1RAs significantly reduced the levels of total cholestrol (WMD = -0.18 mg/dL, [-0.34 to -0.02], P = 0.03). Conclusion: This is the first head-to-head study comparing the effects of 3-novel glucose-lowering agents to lipid parameters. However, more trials are crucial to better understand the impact of glucose-lowering drugs on lipid parameters.
