AMELIORATIVE EFFECT OF VORTIOXETINE IN EXPERIMENTAL MODEL OF ENDOCRINE PANCREAS DAMAGE RELATED TO CHRONIC UNPREDICTABLE MILD STRESS: AN IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL STUDY.
Article in Acta endocrinologica (Bucharest, Romania : 2005). 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
Context: Chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) has been widely shown to impact neurological disorders. Recently, growing evidence suggests that CUMS may also contribute to the development of metabolic conditions such as diabetes mellitus. Objective: This study aimed to investigate blood glucose levels and histopathological and immunohistochemical changes in the endocrine pancreas in an experimental rat model of CUMS, as well as the potential protective effects of vortioxetine (VOR) treatment. Subjects and methods: A total of 28 rats were divided into four groups. The CUMS group was exposed to random stressors once daily for six weeks. Rats in the VOR and CUMS+VOR groups received VOR treatment. The VOR and control groups were housed separately, without exposure to CUMS. At the end of the experiment, blood and pancreatic tissue samples were collected from all rats. Results: Blood glucose levels were elevated in the CUMS group compared to the other groups. Histopathological analysis revealed a reduction in insulin, amylin, and insulin receptor expression, along with a slight increase in glucagon expression and a small number of necrotic cells in the CUMS group. VOR treatment improved all these parameters. Conclusions: Our findings suggested that CUMS may contribute to endocrine pancreatic damage resembling diabetes mellitus, while VOR treatment may mitigate this effect.
