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

backgroundCo-existence of hypertension is known in three quarter of Indian type 2 diabetics, this duo having adverse additive effect on cardiovascular health including dysautonomia. Latter can be measured by simple 5min heart rate variability (HRV) using simple electrocardiogram, which if reduced indicates cardiac risk.

objectiveWe compared HRV parameters between hypertensive and normotensive type 2 diabetics, looking for significant difference if any. MATERIALS AND

methods98 hypertensive and 40 normotensive type 2 diabetics treated as outpatients were evaluated for disease control and risk stratification. Fivemin resting HRV was measured by Variowin HR, software based instrument, using standard protocols to record time domain, frequency domain and Poincare plot parameters. They were compared between groups for difference.

resultsMean age was 56 and 51 years, duration 6 years and 4 years respectively in hypertensive (HT) and normotensive (NT) group of type 2 diabetics, which did not significantly differ in distribution of risk factors. There was poor glycaemic control (one third) in both groups and good pressure control in HT group. Both groups revealed all reduced HRV parameters with significant difference in-between only for LF/HF ratio (1.29 in HT vs 2.61 in NT group).

conclusionOur findings of HRV suggest that in type 2 diabetics with poor glycaemic and good pressure control, hypertension as a co-existing factor does not make significant difference in cardiac dysautonomia emphasizing residual risk despite antihypertensive treatment and need for early HRV screening, strict glycaemic control and other interventions.
