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 urgent need to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which is currently reaching epidemic proportions, has been a major focus of healthcare systems and policy makers worldwide. Pharmacological treatment and lifestyle interventions together with the control of cardiovascular risk factors are the main strategies to prevent or delay the onset of T2DM. The present review discusses the state of the art knowledge of effective therapeutic approaches (metformin, thiazolidinediones, nateglinides, α-glucosidase inhibitors, incretin-based and angiotensin-based therapies, weight reducers, statins, fibric acid derivatives), including surgery, and identifies the major lifestyle changes for specific target groups.
