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

Diabetes mellitus is as much a vascular disease as it is a metabolic disorder. The metabolic abnormalities associated with diabetes include hyperglycemia, and abnormal carbohydrate, fat, and protein handling. These abnormalities increase oxidative stress and activate the renin angiotensin system, which subsequently causes endothelial dysfunction and predisposes to atherosclerosis. Type 2 diabetes has reached epidemic proportions and because of its strong association with coronary artery disease (CAD), it is responsible for increasing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in the United States. In this article we review some of the evidence and the rationale for comprehensive risk reduction to prevent and treat CAD in individuals with diabetes mellitus. The comprehensive risk reduction strategy includes lifestyle changes, glycemic control, and control of dyslipidemia and hypertension. Advances in revascularization techniques, and superior outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting as an interventional modality over percutaneous coronary intervention, are discussed. We also identify controversies and issues that currently remain unresolved.
