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

AIM/

introductionWe evaluated the association between hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTW) phenotype and the risks of type 2 diabetes in an Iranian high-risk population. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe analyzed 7-year follow-up data (n = 1,865) in non-diabetic first-degree relatives of consecutive patients with type 2 diabetes aged 30-70 years. The primary outcome was the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes based on repeated oral glucose tolerance tests. We used multiple logistic regressions to estimate the odds ratio (OR) for incident type 2 diabetes across four groups according to baseline fasting serum triglycerides (TG) level and waist circumference (WC): normal WC and normal TG, normal WC and high TG, enlarged WC and normal TG, and HTW (enlarged WC high TG).

resultsThe HTW phenotype at baseline was associated with the incidence of type 2 diabetes. Those with HTW were 2.4-fold (OR 2.36, 95% confidence interval 1.61-3.44), those with normal WC high TG were 1.9-fold (OR 1.87, 95% confidence interval 1.29-2.70) and those with enlarged WC but normal TG were 2.8-fold (OR 2.84, 95% confidence interval 1.96-4.13) more likely to develop type 2 diabetes than those with normal WC and normal TG.

conclusionsThese data provide further evidence that the HTW phenotype is a robust predictor of type 2 diabetes in high-risk individuals in Iran, and the predictive power is not higher than that of simple enlarged WC and normal TG, emphasizing the importance of enlarged WC to the development of type 2 diabetes.
