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

Background/objective: Heat-moisture treatment (HMT) can increase the composition of resistant starch and reduce the glycemic index in rice. However, the effect of long-term HMT-rice feeding is unknown. The objective is to investigate the effect of long-term HMT-rice feeding on alleviating hyperglycemia in mice and explore potential mechanisms. Methods: In this study, HMT-rice was characterized for its X-ray diffraction pattern, in-vitro and in-vivo digestibility. In the feeding experiment, thirty C57BL/6 male mice were fed for 3 months using one of the three diets ( Results: The mice in the HMT-rice group had significantly improved oral glucose tolerance and reduced serum cholesterol and body weight gain versus the HFD group. For serum metabolites, HMT-rice significantly enriched several lysophospholipids. The increase of several fecal metabolites including oxidized phospholipids and bile acid/amino acid derivatives by HFD feeding were significantly reversed by HMT-rice treatment. The changes of these serum and fecal metabolites were correlated with the changes of fasting serum glucose. Conclusion: HMT-rice significantly improved oral glucose tolerance in HFD-fed mice through the regulations of serum and fecal metabolites.
