Antihyperglycemic and antihyperlipidemic activities of wild musk melon (
Article in Chinese herbal medicines, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Objective: Wild musk melon ( Methods: Diabetes was induced by administration of STZ (60 mg/kg, i.p.) after 15 min of NIC (120 mg/kg i.p.) administration. The diabetic rats were treated with HALEC (300 and 600 mg/kg, p.o., respectively) for 21 d. Results: After the management with HALEC, blood glucose, HbA1c levels, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides levels, glycogen phosphorylase and glucose-6-phosphatase levels were significantly diminished in diabetic rats. However, haemoglobin level, HDL cholesterol, liver glycogen, total protein, hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase levels were significantly increased in HALEC treated diabetic rats. The histopathological studies of the pancreas in HALEC-treated diabetic rats showed almost normal appearance. L6 cell line study revealed the increased glucose uptake activity of HALEC. High performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) analysis confirms the presence of active principles such as rutin, gallic acid and quercetin in HALEC. Conclusion: The results indicated that HALEC possess significant antihyperglycemic and antihyperlipidemic activity in STZ-NIC-induced type II diabetic rats with protective effect. This research work will be useful for the isolation of active principles and development of herbal formulation in phytopharmaceuticals.
