1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a common diabetic complication. DPN has a complicated pathogenesis, and the currently clinical drugs against this disease show only limited efficacy and undesirable side effects. Thus, it is of great challenges to discover effective targets and drugs against DPN. Glabridin (GLA) is a natural prenylated isoflavone from the roots of Glycyrrhiza glabra. It exhibits a wide range of pharmacological activities including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, cardiovascular protective, neuroprotective, hepatoprotective, anti-obesity and anti-diabetic effects, etc. In this study we investigated the beneficial effects of GLA on late-stage DPN and the underlying mechanisms. Using electrophysiological recording from CHO-Kv2.1 cells, we identified GLA as a new Kv2.1-selective inhibitor with an IC
