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

backgroundType 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is an autoimmune disease with beta-cell destruction, resulting in insulin deficiency. It is now clear that environmental factors also play a role in disease development. The prevalence of type 1 diabetes in children and young people in Portugal is 0.16% between 0 and 19 years of age. The main cause of death in T1DM is cardiovascular disease, and early endothelial dysfunction is its pathophysiologycal precursor. Hyperglycemia is associated with increased production of free radicals and increased oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to analyze the antioxidant status in a pediatric portuguese diabetic population.

methodsThe study was conducted to characterize and compare the antioxidant status in children aged 2 - 10 years old, with type 1 diabetes and healthy children. Plasmatic profile of total phenolic content (TPC), ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) in children with diabetes and controls, pre-pubescent, and with BMI < 85th centile were evaluated.

resultsFRAP values were significantly lower in diabetic children compared with healthy controls (P < 0.001). There was not any statistical significant difference in the TPC and the TEAC determinations.

conclusionsYoung Portuguese diabetic children have a lower antioxidant status than healthy children.
