Trends in the prevalence of type 2 diabetes and its association with mortality rates in Asians vs. Whites: Results from the United States National Health Interview Survey from 2000 to 2014.
Article in Journal of diabetes and its complications, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
aimsTo identify the prevalence and mortality of type 2 diabetes in Asian Americans (Asians) vs. non-Hispanic whites (Whites).
methodsWe analyzed a nationally representative sample of 237,354 U.S. adults aged ≥30 years using National Health Interview Survey data from 2000 to 2014 to estimate the prevalence and trends of type 2 diabetes. Additionally, 144,638 Asians and Whites represented in surveys from 2000 to 2009 were included in the mortality analysis with follow-up to 2011.
resultsType 2 diabetes was higher in Asians than Whites (7.0-11.2 vs. 5.6-8.3%) and increased over time. Prevalence rates increased from 8.1 (2000-2002) to 9.6% (2012-2014) in Asians and from 6.0 (2000-2002) to 7.9% (2012-2014) in Whites (both P < 0.05). The age-standardized mortality rates were 72.7 and 138.8 per 1000 person-years in Asians and Whites with diabetes, respectively, and 58.1 and 77.8 per 1000 person-years, respectively, in those without diabetes. Among Asians and Whites with diabetes, hazard ratios for total and CVD mortality were 0.7 (95% CI: 0.5-0.9) and 0.3 (95% CI: 0.1-0.6), respectively, with no difference in cancer mortality. Asians and Whites without diabetes exhibited no differences in total or cause-specific mortality.
conclusionsType 2 diabetes was more prevalent in Asians, with a significant upward trend since 2000, but overall mortality was lower in Asians than Whites with diabetes. Asians are susceptible to type 2 diabetes; thus, prevention programs are still needed.
