Tacrolimus and diabetic rodent models.
Review in Pharmacological reports : PR, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Tacrolimus (TAC) is an immunosuppressant widely utilized in organ transplantation. One of its primary adverse effects is glucose metabolism disorder, which significantly increases the risk of diabetes. Investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying TAC-induced diabetes is essential for developing effective prevention and treatment strategies for these adverse effects. In addition, TAC can induce cost-effective, non-obese animal models of diabetes, where the metabolic parameter changes closely resemble those observed during the onset and progression of type 2 diabetes (T2DM), post-transplantation diabetes mellitus (PTDM), and associated complications. This review, based on articles indexed in PubMed up to August 19, 2024, identified 48 studies focusing on TAC-induced diabetic rodent models and 22 studies exploring the effects of TAC on diabetic or obese rodent models. These studies were systematically summarized based on TAC dosage, route of administration, duration of administration, and glucose metabolism indices used for evaluation. Additionally, the impact of TAC dose reduction or discontinuation on glucose metabolism was assessed, along with pharmacological agents that modulate TAC-induced diabetes, including anti-diabetic medications, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compounds, biologics, and antibiotics. Key signaling pathways implicated in TAC-induced diabetes include CaN/NFAT, PI3K/AKT/mTOR, and TGF-β/Smad, all of which impair islet β-cell function, thereby contributing to diabetes development. This review provides a concise summary of the characteristics of relevant murine models, offering valuable guidance for selecting appropriate and economical animal models for future research.
