Reduction of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in type 2 diabetes. A rational approach to hypoglycemic therapy.
Review in Journal of endocrinological investigation, 2004. 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
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the single most important risk factor for the development of coronary artery disease. Unfortunately, the traditional therapeutic strategies for the treatment of hyperglycemia have proven to be ineffective in preventing cardiovascular complications. In recent years the number of available hypoglycemic agents has increased and considerable progress has been made regarding the comprehension of the pathophysiology of diabetes and its vascular complications. In the present article we firstly present benefits and risks of intensive vs standard hypoglycemic intervention, and the pros and cons of therapy targeted to postprandial hyperglycemia. Secondly, we discuss the cardiovascular effects of sulfonylurea agents and insulin, focusing on the role of intensive insulin treatment in the context of acute coronary syndromes. Thirdly, we review the epidemiological, clinical and experimental evidence linking insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease. Finally, we present the rationale and the role of metformin and thiazolidinedionetherapy in the prevention of cardiovascular complications. We conclude that the optimal use of the full spectrum of hypoglycemic agents has the potential to play a key role in the prevention of diabetes-related macrovascular complications.
