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

backgroundThe prevalence of diabetes and diabetic complications increased alarmingly which also brought heavy burden to patients and health system.

methodsWe used mix approaches to summarize evidence from published articles and policy documents on the extent and trends of diabetic complications, potential causes, and awareness and services utilization of diabetes in China.

resultsThe annual direct medical expense per patient varied among different types of complications and increased dramatically with the number of diabetic complication and patients were exposed to great financial risk. The number of health policies and strategies on diabetes and its complications at the national level is limited. Primary and secondary preventions such as health education and early diagnosis are necessary.

conclusionsWith an increasingly burden of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes and its complications, efforts should be invested in education, early screening mechanism and patient management programs to improve the primary and secondary prevention of diabetes and its complications. An integrated services delivery system centered on primary level is recommended to promote education, early case-detection and screening, patient management, referral and care-coordination between primary, secondary and tertiary health care providers.
