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: Metabolomic profiling via machine learning can reveal signatures of host metabolism and identify useful biomarkers. We aimed to investigate metabolomic profiles and biomarkers in adult patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) via machine learning. Methods: We recruited 29 adult patients with T1D and matched them with 29 healthy controls on the basis of age, sex, and body mass index (BMI). We collected serum samples from both groups and performed nontargeted metabolomics with liquid chromatography‒mass spectrometry (LC‒MS). Four machine learning algorithms (logistic regression, support vector machine, Gaussian naive Bayes, and random forest) were used to screen potential T1D-related biomarkers. Results: We identified 328 differently abundant metabolites between the T1D group and the control group that were significantly enriched in three metabolic pathways (purine metabolism, ketone body synthesis and degradation, and methyl butyrate metabolism), with Conclusion: In this study, we identified purine metabolism, synthesis and degradation of ketone bodies, and impaired methyl butyrate metabolism as metabolic pathways that are altered in adult patients with T1D. Our findings present an extensive profile of metabolic changes in adult patients with T1D, and the identified biomarkers may have important clinical significance in the diagnosis of T1D and the monitoring of responses to therapeutic interventions.
