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

backgroundFructosamine (FRA) is widely used for diabetes monitor and control as a glycemic marker, especially in patients in whom the measurement of HbA1c may be biased or even unreliable. However, the FRA reference intervals based on Asian population features still keep seldom reported. The objective of this study was to establish the adult FRA reference intervals in Beijing, China.

methodsA total of 1,497 healthy subjects were separated into three groups by gender and age. Subsequently, FRA levels in the collected serum samples from the reference individuals were tested by automatic chemical analyzer. The obtained data were statistically analyzed with SPSS.

resultsThe serum FRA level in female group was slightly higher than that in male group without statistical significance. Meanwhile, further analysis indicated that the FRA level gradually increased along with the growth of the age. Compared with the age 20-45 group (248.83 ± 17.64 μmol/l) or the age 46-65 group (251.95 ± 19.63 μmol/l), the FRA level of the age >65 group (264.63± 23.05 μmol/l) was statistically significantly increased (P < 0.01). To better analyze the difference, the age 20-45 group and the age 46-65 group were combined into an age 20-65 group (249.88 ±18.39 μmol/l). In comparison to the age >65 group, the FRA level of age 20-65 group was significantly decreased (P <0.01).

conclusionA novel FRA reference interval of the local healthy population in Beijing was established. The data demonstrated that there was no gender difference in FRA level, however, which was significantly increased in elder persons.
