[Cardiovascular events linked to the new diagnostic categories of diabetes mellitus].
Article in Atencion primaria, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
objectiveTo study the cardiovascular events linked to the new diagnostic categories of diabetes mellitus proposed by the American Diabetes Association.
designDescriptive cross-sectional study.Setting. Urban health district.Participants. 2248 patients > 14, selected by simple random sampling from the medical records archive. MAIN MEASUREMENTS: Through the medical records review, patients were classified into those with normal glucaemia, those intolerant to glucose when fasting (IGF) and those with type-2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). Patients were studied for cardiovascular events, ischaemic cardiopathy, cerebrovascular disease and peripheral arteriopathy. The likelihood of such events in patients with IGF and DM2 was compared with normal-glucose patients through logistical regression, adjustment for age, gender, hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia, hypertriglyceridaemia and tobacco dependency.
results1677 patients were classified: 1237 with normal glucaemia, 175 with IGF and 265 with DM2. The DM2 patients were more likely to have at least one cardiovascular event (OR, 2.7; 95% CI, 1.7-4.4), ischaemic cardiopathy (OR, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.1-3.6), cerebrovascular disease (OR, 3.0; 95% CI, 1.4-6.6) or peripheral arteriopathy (OR, 2.9; 95% CI, 1.2-7.7). Results reached no statistical significance in patients with IGF, though these were more likely to suffer a cardiovascular event (OR, 1.1; 95% CI, 0.6-2.1), ischaemic cardiopathy (OR, 1.1; 95% CI, 0.3-4.4), cerebrovascular disease (OR, 1.5; 95% CI, 0.5-4.1) or peripheral arteriopathy (OR, 1.2; 95% CI, 0.3-4.6).
conclusionsPatients with DM2 are more likely to present cardiovascular events, a phenomenon not seen in the case of IGF.
