Bioelectronic modulation of carotid sinus nerve to treat type 2 diabetes: current knowledge and future perspectives.
Review in Frontiers in neuroscience, 2024. 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
Bioelectronic medicine are an emerging class of treatments aiming to modulate body nervous activity to correct pathological conditions and restore health. Recently, it was shown that the high frequency electrical neuromodulation of the carotid sinus nerve (CSN), a small branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve that connects the carotid body (CB) to the brain, restores metabolic function in type 2 diabetes (T2D) animal models highlighting its potential as a new therapeutic modality to treat metabolic diseases in humans. In this manuscript, we review the current knowledge supporting the use of neuromodulation of the CSN to treat T2D and discuss the future perspectives for its clinical application. Firstly, we review in a concise manner the role of CB chemoreceptors and of CSN in the pathogenesis of metabolic diseases. Secondly, we describe the findings supporting the potential therapeutic use of the neuromodulation of CSN to treat T2D, as well as the feasibility and reversibility of this approach. A third section is devoted to point up the advances in the neural decoding of CSN activity, in particular in metabolic disease states, that will allow the development of closed-loop approaches to deliver personalized and adjustable treatments with minimal side effects. And finally, we discuss the findings supporting the assessment of CB activity in metabolic disease patients to screen the individuals that will benefit therapeutically from this bioelectronic approach in the future.
