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

The antral endocrine cells were investigated in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice by means of immunohistochemistry, image analysis, and radioimmunoassays (RIA). As controls BALB/CJ mice of the same age and sex as the NOD mice were used. The number of gastrin- and somatostatin-immunoreactive cells was significantly decreased in both prediabetic and diabetic mice. There was no statistical difference between the NOD mice and controls regarding the serotonin-immunoreactive cells. Somatostatin levels as revealed by RIA in the antrum of both prediabetic and diabetic NOD mice were lower than those of the controls. There was no statistical difference in the level of antral gastrin between NOD mice and the controls. It was concluded that the changes in antral cells are primary to the onset of diabetes, and that the abnormalities observed in the antral cells in an animal model for diabetes type I might have relevance for the upper gastrointestinal dysfunction displayed in human diabetes.
