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: Magnetic fields can affect physiological systems and some diseases, such as diabetes. Objective: The current study aimed to investigate the effect of a low-power magnetic field on the blood parameters of mice, with streptozotocin-induced diabetes. Material and Methods: In this experimental study, 48 adult male mice were divided into six groups of eight. Diabetic mice were exposed to magnetic fields of 0.0005 and 0.005 tesla for 5 and 10 days using Helmholtz coils. Blood samples were collected every other day to measure blood factors and assess the magnetic field's effects on diabetes-related parameters. Results: In the diabetes groups, blood protein levels decreased without any effect from the magnetic intervention. However, in three out of the four groups, blood albumin increased under the influence of the magnetic field. The induction of a magnetic field led to a decrease in blood Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase (GGT) activity. Additionally, the magnetic field resulted in increasing blood magnesium levels. Conclusion: The effects of the magnetic field and diabetes on the measured blood parameters, including GGT and magnesium were independent. However, the blood albumin level, which was reduced under the influence of induced diabetes, was improved by the magnetic fields, especially in the magnetic field of the 0.005 tesla.
