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

backgroundDiabetes mellitus is a common metabolic disorder which is increasing worldwide. This study aimed to undertake a survey of the diabetes research in Iran to identify gaps and highlight strengths in order to develop a roadmap for diabetes research in Iran for the next years.

methodsTo develop a roadmap and to identify major areas of diabetes research, we carried out a systematic assessment of Iranian diabetes research publications. All obtained studies were categorized to 11 groups and each group was classified according to the "study design", "subject area", "World Health Organization (WHO) classification", and "Australian Standard Research Classifications". The number of publications per each year was calculated. Research trends in publications in each area were assessed and compared.

conclusionBy this study, we will provide the highlighted priorities, the gaps of research and strategic mapping of each area of diabetes research that could serve as a precious guideline for national research initiatives in the field of diabetes. By a strategic map, we can achieve many advances in the all aspects of diabetes research that finally impact on the health, quality of life and well-being of diabetic patients.
