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

In late-stage type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), impaired islet β cell function leads to absolute insulin deficiency, thereby disrupting blood glucose homeostasis. GLP-1, an incretin hormone, stimulates insulin secretion from islet β cells post-meals. This study investigated the effects of anthocyanin cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G) on GLP-1 secretion using STC-1 (intestinal endocrine L cells) and NIT-1 (islet β cells). In a co-culture system, C3G treatment increased GLP-1 secretion in STC-1 cells, promoting insulin release in NIT-1 cells under high glucose. Mechanistically, C3G activated the PPARβ/δ-β-catenin-TCF-4 pathway in STC-1 cells, enhancing PG precursor transcription and GLP-1 synthesis.Inhibiting PPARβ/δ with GSK0660 blocked this C3G-induced upregulation. Overall, C3G stimulates GLP-1 secretion from intestinal L cells via this pathway, indirectly boosting insulin release from β cells. These findings enhance T2DM mechanism understanding and suggest the potential of C3G in GLP-1-based T2DM therapy.
