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: Food-derived flavonoids are emerging as nutraceutical agents for glycemic control. Dihydromyricetin (DMY), the signature flavanonol of vine tea ( Methods: We administered DMY (50 and 100 mg/kg/day, 12 days) to streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetic mice. Fasting glycemia, lipid panels, and HOMA-β were evaluated 4 weeks after DMY administration. Untargeted UPLC-QTOF metabolomics combined with network pharmacology pinpointed pathway hubs, while experiments in INS-1 β-cells using the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 verified the pathway's involvement. Results: DMY reduced hyperglycemia, corrected dyslipidemia, and preserved islet architecture. Metabolomics indicated a shift toward a normal plasma profile, with the arachidonic acid, linoleic acid, and steroid hormone pathways being the most responsive. Six hub targets (PTGS2, IL6, AKT1, IL1B, BCL2, CASP3) mapped to eicosanoid signaling, apoptosis, and PI3K/AKT axis. Docking and cell assays confirmed direct binding and PI3K/AKT-dependent cytoprotection, evidenced by restored p-AKT, lowered ROS, and reduced caspase-3 cleavage. Conclusion: DMY, a readily accessible food-derived bioactive compound, reprograms lipid-inflammatory metabolism and activates PI3K/AKT to safeguard β-cell viability, highlighting its nutraceutical promise for dietary management of autoimmune diabetes.
