Association of Alcohol Drinking Patterns With Presence of Impaired Fasting Glucose and Diabetes Mellitus Among South Korean Adults.
Article in Journal of epidemiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
backgroundWe aimed to investigate the association between alcohol drinking patterns and the presence of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and diabetes mellitus (DM).
methodsWe used data from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2010-2014. The participants were aged ≥30 years and had no previous diagnosis of DM. High-risk drinking was defined as alcohol consumption of ≥7 glasses at a sitting for men, and ≥5 glasses for women. After adjusting for confounding factors, a polychotomous logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the association of drinking patterns with IFG and DM.
resultsFor men, high-risk drinking was associated with higher odds ratios (ORs) of IFG (2-4/month, OR 1.51; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.13-2.04; 2-3/week, OR 1.79; 95% CI, 1.38-2.33; and ≥4/week, OR 2.24; 95% CI, 1.65-3.03) and of DM (2-4/month, OR 2.12; 95% CI, 1.20-3.77; 2-3/week, OR 1.78; 95% CI, 1.05-3.03; and ≥4/week, OR 2.98; 95% CI, 1.72-5.17). For women, high-risk drinking was associated with higher risk of IFG (2-4/month, OR 1.51; 95% CI, 1.04-2.21; 2-3/week, OR 3.19; 95% CI, 2.20-4.64; and ≥4/week, OR 2.23; 95% CI, 1.23-4.06), but not of DM, compared with non-high-risk drinkers who consumed alcohol ≤1 day/month. Non-high-risk drinkers who consumed alcohol ≥4 days/week had higher ORs of DM in men, but lower ORs of DM in women compared with non-high risk drinkers who consumed alcohol ≤1 day/month.
conclusionsCompared with non-high-risk alcohol drinking, even occasional high-risk alcohol drinking was associated with a higher risk of IFG in men and women, and DM in men. Nearly daily non-high-risk alcohol drinking was associated with a higher risk of DM in men and lower risk of DM in women.
