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

AIMS/

introductionThe aim of the present study was to investigate the role of interleukin-19 (IL-19) in angiogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus with complications, and to assess the relationship of serum IL-19 and angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) in type 2 diabetes mellitus. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe group studied comprised of 240 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (132 men and 108 women), and included macrovascular complications, microvascular complications and type 2 diabetes mellitus without vascular complications. The control group consisted of 50 healthy blood donors. All participants were evaluated for: IL-19, Ang-2, fasting plasma glucose, fasting insulin and glycosylated hemoglobin.

resultsThe serum IL-19 levels of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with angiopathy were found to be significantly higher compared with patients without angiopathy. IL-19 levels were significantly positively correlated with Ang-2, homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance and glycosylated hemoglobin (r = 0.769, 0.523 and 0.491, respectively, P < 0.01). In multivariable logistic regression analysis, IL-19 levels (P = 0.01) were found to be independently associated with patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus complications.

conclusionsThese data are the first to implicate the association between the IL-19 and type 2 diabetes mellitus with vascular complications. IL-19 is significantly positively correlated with Ang-2. The potential role of IL-19 and Ang-2 in the pathogenesis of vascular complications in type 2 diabetes could warrant further study.
