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

backgroundIn Japan, there has been a remarkable increase in the incidence of type 2 diabetes in elderly patients. This study aimed to clarify the renal status in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes. PARTICIPANTS AND

methodsThere were 978 patients with type 2 diabetes who were classified into three groups: Group 1 (aged < 65 years of age), Group 2 (65-74 years of age), and Group 3 (≥ 75 years of age). Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urinary albumin level were measured. Moreover, the frequencies of each stage of chronic kidney disease for each group were determined, and differences among the three groups were analyzed.

resultsThe mean eGFR in Group 3 was 63.2 ± 19.1 mL/min/1.73 m

conclusionIn elderly patients with type 2 diabetes, renal dysfunction is characterized by low eGFR with normo- and microalbuminuria. In this group, macroangiopathy was more common than microangiopathy. The elderly patients with diabetes with low eGFR with proteinuria frequently had micro- and macroangiopathies.
