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

objectiveType 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic immune-mediated disease. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is an important microvascular complication of T1DM. One of the most important risk factors for the development of DPN is poor glycemic control. We evaluated the prevalence of DPN among T1DM patients and determined the association between DPN and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level. MATERIALS &

methodsThe subjects were recruited prospectively upon initial evaluation at Imam Reza Hospital, Mashhad, Iran from Jan 2013 to Jan 2015. Patients with T1DM were selected based on the inclusion criteria (i.e., age of 6≤yr and absence of other co-morbidities). DPN was assessed through electrodiagnostic studies and neurological examinations, while diabetes control was evaluated by measuring the HbA1c level.

resultsFifty patients with T1DM were enrolled in this study. The mean diabetes duration of patients was 8.38±3.79 yr (mean age16.68±6.68 yr). The mean HbA1c level was 8.6±2.1% in patients without DPN and 10.5±3 in those with DPN (

conclusionRigid blood glucose control and periodic neurological examinations were the best strategies to prevent DPN.
