A new model for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus based on rhythm regulations under the framework of psychosomatic medicine: a real-world study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
We aimed to explore a new treatment model for type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) based on rhythm regulation under the framework of psychosomatic medicine. Using psychotropics as rhythm regulators, 178 patients with DM were evaluated and divided into three groups: the antidiabetic treatment group (AT group), psychotropic treatment group (PT group), and combined antidiabetic + psychotropic treatment group (combined group), for a course of 16 weeks. The West China Psychiatry Association (WCPA) Somatic Symptom Classification Scale (SSCS) was used to evaluate each patient. The levels of hormones in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) and hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axes and of blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were evaluated both before and after treatment. After the treatment, the blood glucose and HbA1c levels in all three groups were lower than those at baseline. Furthermore, the incidence of the abnormal HPA axis in the PT group was significantly decreased (P = 0.003), while the incidence of the abnormal HPA axis in the combined group was 0.0%. The five factor scores of the SSCS in the PT and combined groups after treatment were both significantly low (P < 0.01). Both the incidence of abnormal neuroendocrine axes and SSCS scores in the AT group showed no significant difference before and after treatment. "Blood glucose control + rhythm regulation" should be considered as optimised treatment goals for DM. Moreover, some psychotropics could be used as biorhythm regulators, which have good potential value for clinical application.Clinical trial registration number: ChiCTR1800019064. Name of trial registration: Reinterpretation of mechanism and the optimization of treatment for non-infectious chronic diseases under the "stress-dysrhythmia" theory hypothesis.
