Comparative analysis of antioxidant status in diabetic patients with and without insulin resistance.
Article in Journal of medicine and life, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by insulin resistance, where hyperglycemia is believed to trigger oxidative stress, contributing to insulin function impairment. This study aimed to assess and compare levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and uric acid in diabetic patients with and without insulin resistance and to assess the correlation with fasting blood sugar (FBS) and lipid profiles. Significant variations were found in MDA, uric acid, and GSH levels between insulin-resistant and non-resistant diabetic groups (p<0.0001). FBS, hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), insulin activity, and Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) significantly differed between the groups (p<0.0001). Total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) concentrations were higher in the insulin resistance group than the non-insulin resistance group (p<0.0001). Uric acid also exhibited a significant correlation (p<0.01) with LDL levels, while HDL levels showed a negative correlation with both MDA and uric acid (p<0.001). Diabetes mellitus, characterized by chronic hyperglycemia, may play a role in the development of oxidative stress. This oxidative stress is a significant factor that could potentially lead to the onset of insulin resistance, a condition strongly associated with dyslipidemia. The results of this study indicate that the decrease in GSH levels and the increase in MDA and uric acid levels are particularly noteworthy in the context of insulin resistance among patients with diabetes.
