The Effect of Tirzepatide on Weight, Lipid Metabolism and Blood Pressure in Overweight/Obese Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

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
Aim: To explore the effects of Tirzepatide (TZP), a new hypoglycemic drug, on weight, blood lipids and blood pressure in overweight/obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods: Relevant studies investigating the influence of TZP therapy on weight, lipid profiles and blood pressure in overweight/obese T2DM patients were selected from the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane databases from establishment until November 2022. A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to evaluate the effect of TZP on weight, blood lipids and blood pressure in overweight/obese patients with T2DM. Results: Eight randomized controlled trials (RCTs), comprising 7491 patients with T2DM, were included in the meta-analysis. Results showed that compared with the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA), insulin, and placebo groups, body weight, triglycerides (TG), very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), fasting blood glucose (FBG), and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels were significantly decreased in the TZP-treated groups, while high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels increased. With the gradual increase of TZP doses, the proportions of T2DM patients with weight loss >5% gradually increased. The 10 mg and 15 mg TZP doses had a stronger effect on the levels of TG, VLDL-C, and HDL-C. Moreover, the reduction in SBP levels in the 15 mg TZP-treated group was more pronounced than those in the 10 mg and 5 mg TZP-treated groups [MD=-2.07, 95% CI (-2.52, -1.63) and MD=-3.14, 95% CI (-4.42, -1.87)]. Compared with GLP-1RA, insulin, and placebo groups, the proportions of patients with HbA1c<7% in 10mg and 15mg TZP-treated groups were significantly higher than in the 5mg TZP-treated group [OR=1.53, 95% CI (1.25, 1.8)], OR=1.7, 95% CI (1.15, 2.50)].There was no significant difference regarding the risk of adverse reactions.
