The mechanism underlying streptozotocin injection for the development of a nontransgenic Alzheimer's disease animal model.
Review in Open veterinary journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Streptozotocin (STZ) is a widely used chemical agent in biomedical research. It is primarily known for its ability to induce high blood glucose levels in animal models by selectively destroying pancreatic beta cells. Nonetheless, many studies have also used STZ to generate animal models of diabetic complications, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) animal models. STZ induction promotes hyperglycemia, which activates numerous mechanism pathways that result in the production of pathogenic AD characteristics, including beta-amyloid accumulation and neurofibrillary tangles. Numerous theories exist to elucidate the mechanisms underlying diabetes and AD; however, studies on the potential of an animal model of STZ-induced AD remain limited. Thus, this review summarizes the pathogenesis associated with STZ exposure, particularly in AD animal model studies related to diabetes. More specifically, this study will discuss the relationship between increased blood glucose levels after STZ injection and the process of beta-amyloid formation and insulin dysfunction in the brain.
