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

In this issue of Diabetologia, two new approaches are described for the assessment of intra-renal blood flow in people with diabetes. The first approach used the technique of dynamic assessment of the resistance index (RI) in the renal interlobar arteries before and after administration of sublingual glyceryl trinitrate, and the second used MRI to assess total renal blood flow in relation to mean arterial pressure, thereby enabling direct measurement of overall renal RI. The results of the first study raise the possibility that dynamic evaluation of the intra-renal RI could be used as an early detector of vascular alterations in type 2 diabetes, before the onset of microalbuminuria. The results of the second study suggest that decreases in renal blood flow in people with longstanding type 1 diabetes reflect intra-renal vascular stiffening and raise the possibility that in microalbuminuric patients it may also reflect increased intraglomerular pressure.
