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

introductionThe prevalence of celiac disease (CD) is increased in diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM1) patients. In most cases, CD is diagnosed in asymptomatic patients and hence periodic screening tests are recommended, but the timing, frequency of tests and indication for duodenal biopsy is unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the dynamics of CD serology in DM1 and identify risk factors for CD.

methodsCeliac serology and duodenal biopsy results from 1990 until 2015 were collected from patients with DM1. The outcome of positive celiac serology, the incidence and risk factors for CD in DM1 patients were investigated.

resultsA total of 314 DM1 patients who had celiac serology were identified, with follow-up period up to 23 years. Of 31 patients (9.9%) with positive celiac serology, 11(35.4%) had spontaneous normalization after various time periods. Eighteen patients were diagnosed with CD (58.1% of positive celiac serology, 5.73% of the study cohort). Age under 4.5 years was a risk factor for CD, but not family background of autoimmune diseases or gender. All patients with CD diagnosis were diagnosed during the first 6 years following DM1 diagnosis.

conclusionScreening asymptomatic DM1 patients for CD beyond 6 years after diagnosis is not recommended. Spontaneous normalization of CD serology occurs, and hence, serologic follow-up may be performed. In children with DM1 diagnosis under the age of 4.5 years or with positive CD serology at DM1 diagnosis, there is an increased risk for CD and therefore positive serology should lead to biopsy.
