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

Diabetes-related hearing loss (DRHL) is a complication of diabetes mellitus that is drawing more attention currently. DNA methylation has a critical role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and its complications. Therefore, we investigated the genome-wide DNA methylation of peripheral blood of T2DM patients with/without hearing loss in order to explore the susceptibility loci of DRHL. Between DRHL group and control group, 113 gene sites were identified to be differentially methylated regions (DMRs). Among 38 DMRs with whole samples, the classification accuracy is up to 90%. With alignment to T2DM susceptibility genes and deafness genes published, KCNJ11 was found to be the only overlapped gene. The DNA methylation level of KCNJ11 was associated with stroke (t = 2.595, p < 0.05), but not with diabetic nephropathy and diabetic retinopathy. The detective rate of distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) from low to high frequencies (0.7-6 kHz) on the right ear was significantly correlated with the methylation level of KCNJ11. The auditory brainstem response (ABR) threshold on the right ear was also correlated (r = 0.678, p < 0.05). This DNA methylation profile indicates the susceptibility loci of DRHL. The potassium metabolism may have a critical role in the hearing loss caused by hyperglycemia.
