1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Ginsenoside Rg1 (Rg1) is one of the key bioactive components of the precious Traditional Chinese Medicine that has been used to treat diabetes in China. Ginsenosides have been reported to protect diabetics from tissue damage, inflammation, and insulin resistance. Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an organ-specific autoimmune disease that occurred frequently among adolescents over the world, its development was related to inflammation and Methods: The model of T1D mice was established by injecting Streptozotocin (STZ) (55 mg/kg) or citric acids once a day for 5 days and from the fourth day of injection, mice were administered with Rg1 (20 mg/kg) or saline by gavage once a day for 12 days. Hematoxylin-eosin staining, immunofluorescence, ELISA, quantitative real-time PCR, and Western blot were used to observe the histopathological changes, inflammatory factor levels, and autophagy markers after administration of ginsenoside Rg1. Results: Compared to the T1D mice, Rg1 improved the weight ( Conclusions: This study proved that Rg1 protected mice against T1D possibly by improving islet injury and tissue inflammation, raising serum insulin, and tissue autophagy marker.
