Association of Glucagon to Insulin Ratio and Metabolic Syndrome in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. 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
There is a growing interest in the role of glucagon in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Glucagon and insulin regulate glucose and lipid metabolism. Metabolic syndrome is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease in patients with T2DM. We investigated the association between glucagon to insulin ratio and metabolic syndrome in patients with T2DM. This is a cross-sectional study involving 317 people with type 2 diabetes. Glucagon and insulin levels were measured in a fasted state and 30 min after ingesting a standard mixed meal. The Criteria of the International Diabetes Federation defined metabolic syndrome. Two hundred nineteen (69%) of the subjects had metabolic syndrome. The fasting glucagon to insulin ratio was significantly lower in patients with metabolic syndrome (14.0 ± 9.7 vs. 17.3 ± 10.3,
