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

objectiveTo evaluate the effect of elevated fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and hemoglobin A(1c) (HbA(1c)) concentrations on lung dysfunction and to prospectively investigate whether reduced lung function would be independently predictive of diabetes. PARTICIPANTS AND

methodsFrom January 6, 1997, through December 22, 2008, we observed 5346 men with no history of diabetes or lung dysfunction. Hazard ratios (HRs) for incident diabetes (FPG ≥126 mg/dL, HbA(1c) ≥6.5%, or self-reported clinician-diagnosed diabetes) were estimated for spirometry indices as continuous and categorical variables.

resultsElevated HbA(1c) concentrations within the normal range were significantly and more strongly associated with reduced forced vital capacity and forced expiratory volume in the first second after expiration (FEV(1)) than were FPG concentrations. During a 4.0-year follow-up, diabetes developed in 214 individuals. A 10-point decrease in percentage of FEV(1) predicted value was associated with an increased HR of 1.21 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.09-1.34; P=.001) for diabetes after adjustment for demographic factors and body mass index. This association remained significant even after adjustment for metabolic factors, smoking status, and FPG or HbA(1c) concentrations but was attenuated substantially after adjustment for baseline HbA(1c) values (HR, 1.13; 95% CI, 1.01-1.26; P=.03). Lower quartile (Q) categories of percentage of FEV(1) predicted value were associated with increased risk of diabetes independently of known predictors including HbA(1c) (HR, 1.73; 95% CI, 1.14-2.62 for Q1; and HR, 1.76; 95% CI, 1.15-2.69 for Q2).

conclusionReduced lung function was significantly related to chronic glycemic exposure within a normal range. Relatively low pulmonary function was an independent risk factor for diabetes in apparently healthy Japanese men.
