Coprevalence of parasitic infections and diabetes in Sub-Himalayan region of Northern India.
Article in International journal of health sciences. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
objectivesParasitic infections such as toxoplasmosis, hydatidosis, and cysticercosis infect a large population worldwide.
methodsA total of 256 confirmed parasitic serum samples were included in the study, of which 95 were positive for toxoplasmosis, 87 for hydatidosis, and 74 for cysticercosis infection. These samples were then analyzed for hyperglycemia.
resultsIn case of hydatidosis, the frequency of hyperglycemia was 14.94%, followed by cysticercosis (10.8%) and toxoplasmosis (8.42%). The frequency of insulin resistance was analyzed in these hyperglycemic samples. The coprevalence of diabetes was higher in case of hyperglycemic hydatidosis patient samples (11.49%), followed by cysticercosis (8.10%) while the coprevalence of diabetes was minimum (6.31%) in toxoplasmosis patients samples. Thus, the overall prevalence of diabetes with parasitic infections was 8.6%.
conclusionThe study suggested the coexistence of hyperglycemia in hydatidosis, cysticercosis, and toxoplasmosis infected samples. However, higher prevalence of high glucose level was detected among hydatidosis infected samples. Thus, suggested individuals infected with hydatidosis were more susceptible for diabetes in comparison to toxoplasmosis and cysticercosis.
