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 hypothesis that plasma prekallikrein (PK) is a risk factor for the development of vascular complications was assessed in a study using the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT)/Epidemiology and Diabetes Interventions and Complications (EDIC) cohort of subjects with type 1 diabetes. The circulating levels of plasma PK activity were measured in the plasma of 636 subjects with type 1 diabetes (EDIC years 3-5). Common and internal carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) were measured by B-mode ultrasonography in EDIC years 1 and 6. Plasma PK levels were positively and significantly associated with BMI, hemoglobin A1c, systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides but not with age, sex, duration of diabetes, or HDL cholesterol. Univariate and multivariable statistical models after controlling for other risk factors consistently demonstrated a positive association between plasma PK and progression of internal carotid IMT. Multivariate analysis using a general linear model showed plasma PK to be significantly associated with progression of both internal and combined IMT (Wilks Λ P value of 0.005). In addition, the mean internal carotid IMT levels were higher in subjects with plasma PK levels in the highest 10th percentile compared with subjects with plasma PK levels in the lower 10th percentile (P = 0.048). These novel findings implicate plasma PK as a risk factor for vascular disease in type 1 diabetes.
