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

aimTo compare the blood glucose control of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with different treatment methods, oral hypoglycemic agents (OHA) monotherapy, insulin injection and combined therapy (OHA + insulin injection) and evaluate their satisfaction with the medical care.

methodsA total of 1512 T2DM patients were assessed, to compare the effects of different treatment methods on glycemic control in T2DM patients, the influencing factors of patients' satisfaction with medical care measures and their relationship with glycemic control. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2 hrs postprandial plasma glucose (2hPG) and HbA1c were measured as the standard of the glycemic control. Satisfaction was defined using the simplified version of DAWN of chronic disease care patient scale (PACIC - DSF).

resultsIn this study, the FPG compliance rate, 2hPG compliance rate and HbA1c compliance rate were 25.5%, 22.7% and 19.5%, respectively. The differences in the glycemic control compliance rates of different treatment methods were not statistically significant. The total score of PACIC - DSF was 34.54±11.65(

conclusionsThe T2DM glycemic control rate in China is currently low. From the score of the PACIC - DSF, there is no significant difference in general satisfaction with medical care measures in different treatments. What is more, education level, occupation and exercise of patients with type 2 diabetes had influence on PACIC - DSF score. Different treatment methods have no influence on the glycemic control of patients with T2DM. FPG value and the 2hPG value are negative correlation with the satisfaction of patients in medical care measures.
