Achieving a Preoperative Target HbA
Article in Diabetes therapy : research, treatment and education of diabetes and related disorders, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionDiabetes mellitus (DM) is present in 10-15% of the surgical population. It is a known risk factor for adverse postoperative outcomes. UK perioperative guidance recommends optimizing glycemic control preoperatively, aiming for a target glycated hemoglobin (HbA
methodsThis was a retrospective observational study of 1000 consecutive patients who had been referred for elective vascular and orthopedic surgery at a large tertiary center. Data were collected on these patients, both those with and without DM, between January 2016 and February 2017. Electronic databases were used to collect information on the patients' preoperative HbA
resultsOf the 1000 patients referred for surgery (500 orthopedic and 500 vascular patients) included in the study, 201 (20%) had diabetes. Among these 201 people with DM, 155 (77%) had a preoperative HbA
conclusionsOur data shows that the majority (77% ) of people undergoing elective vascular and orthopedic surgery were able to achieve a target HbA
