Review in Journal of diabetes science and technology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is among the many common diseases with a strong genetic component, but until recently, the variants causing this disease remained largely undiscovered. With the ability to interrogate most of the variation in the genome, the number of genetic variants has grown from 2 to 19 genes, many with multiple variants. An additional three genes are associated primarily with fasting glucose rather than T2DM. Despite the plethora of new markers, the individual effect is uniformly small, and the cumulative effect explains little of the genetic risk for T2DM. Furthermore, the success is largely restricted to European populations. Despite success in mapping genes in Asian populations, success in United States minorities, particularly African Americans, has been limited. The genetic findings highlight the role of the beta cell in diabetes pathogenesis, but much remains to be discovered before genetic prediction and individualized medicine can become a reality for this disease.
