The adverse effects of diabetes on osteoarthritis: update on clinical evidence and molecular mechanisms.
Review in Osteoarthritis and cartilage, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 63 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Projected increases in the prevalence of both diabetes mellitus (DM) and osteoarthritis (OA) ensure their common co-existence. In an era of increasing attention to personalized medicine, understanding the influence of common comorbidities such as DM should result in improved care of patients with OA. In this narrative review, we summarize the literature addressing the interactions between DM and OA spanning the years from 1962 to 2014. We separated studies depending on whether they investigated clinical populations, animal models, or cells and tissues. The clinical literature addressing the influence of DM on OA and its therapeutic outcomes suggests that DM may augment the development and severity of OA and that DM increases risks associated with joint replacement surgery. The few high quality studies using animal models also support an adverse effect of DM on OA. We review strengths and weaknesses of the common rodent models of DM. The heterogeneous literature derived from studies of articular cells and tissues also supports the existence of biochemical and biomechanical changes in articular tissues in DM, and begins to characterize molecular mechanisms activated in diabetic-like environs which may contribute to OA. Increasing evidence from the clinic and the laboratory supports an adverse effect of DM on the development, severity, and therapeutic outcomes for OA. To understand the mechanisms through which DM contributes to OA, further studies are clearly necessary. Future studies of DM-influenced mechanisms may shed light on general mechanisms of OA pathogenesis and result in more specific and effective therapies for all OA patients.
