Maternal Low-Protein Diet During Nursing Leads to Glucose-Insulin Dyshomeostasis and Pancreatic-Islet Dysfunction by Disrupting Glucocorticoid Responsiveness in Male Rats.

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
Both perinatal malnutrition and elevated glucocorticoids are pivotal triggers of the growing global pandemic of metabolic diseases. Here, we studied the effects of metabolic stress responsiveness on glucose-insulin homeostasis and pancreatic-islet function in male Wistar offspring whose mothers underwent protein restriction during lactation. During the first two weeks after delivery, lactating dams were fed a low-protein (4% protein, LP group) or normal-protein diet (22.5% protein, NP group). At 90 days of age, male rat offspring were challenged with food deprivation (72 h of fasting), intracerebroventricular (icv) injection of dexamethasone (2 µL, 2.115 mmol/L) or chronic intraperitoneal injection of dexamethasone (1 mg/kg body weight/5 days). Body weight, food intake, intravenous glucose tolerance test (ivGTT) results, insulin secretion and biochemical parameters were assessed. LP rats did not display significant metabolic changes after long-term starvation (
