Gender-differences in glycemic control and diabetes related factors in young adults with type 1 diabetes: results from the METRO study.
Observational study in Endocrine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeTo describe gender differences concerning glycemic control, cardiovascular risk factors, diabetic complications, concomitant pathologies, and circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), in a population of young adults with type 1 diabetes.
methodsWe collected data from 300 consecutively patients (168 males and 132 females), aged 18-30 years, among those admitted at Diabetes Unit of University of Campania "Luigi Vanvitelli" (Naples, Italy) from March 2012 to January 2017. Circulating levels of seven EPCs phenotypes were determined by flow cytometry.
resultsAs compared to men, women with type 1 diabetes had a significantly higher HbA1c levels (%, 8.4 ± 1.3 vs. 8.1 ± 1.3, P = 0.020), body mass index (Kg/m
conclusionsYoung adults with type 1 diabetes present gender differences with regard to glycemic control, prevalence of some cardiovascular risk factors, sexual dysfunctions and circulating levels of EPCs, most often to the detriment of women.
