Painful Diabetic Neuropathy: Sex-Specific Mechanisms and Differences from Animal Models to Clinical Outcomes.
Review in Cells, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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 is a chronic and progressive disease associated with high blood glucose levels. Several co-morbidities arise from diabetes, the most common and severe one is diabetic neuropathy whose symptoms also include pain hypersensitivity. Currently, there are no effective therapies to counteract painful diabetic neuropathy or slow down the progression of the disease, and the underlying mechanisms are yet to be fully understood. Emerging data in recent decades have provided compelling evidence that the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying chronic pain are different across the sexes. Interestingly, relevant differences have also been observed in the course and clinical presentation of painful diabetic neuropathy in humans. Here, we reviewed the current state of the art on sex differences in diabetic neuropathy, from animal models to clinical data. Comparing the output of both preclinical and clinical studies is necessary for properly orienting future choices in pain research, refining animal models, and interpreting clinical data. The identification of sex-specific mechanisms may help to develop more targeted therapies to counteract pain symptoms in diabetes.
