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

Objective: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a disease characterized by severe insulin deficiency. In 2008 our group studied the prevalence of diabetes in adults between 20-80 years of age in Cyprus but data regarding this incidence in the pediatric population is lacking. The objective of this study was to report the incidence of T1D among permanent inhabitants aged 16 years or younger between 2001-2016 in Cyprus. Methods: This study was a retrospective analysis. The patients were mainly evaluated and recorded at Dr. Burhan Nalbantoğlu Hospital, Nicosia. Data was also reviewed from Famagusta Government Hospital, Kyrenia Government Hospital, Near East University Hospital and the Cyprus Turkish Diabetes Association. Results: A total of 107 subjects were diagnosed as T1D between 2001 and 2016 in the pediatric age group. Forty-nine (45.7%) were girls and 58 (54.3%) were boys. Of these 38.7% were resident in Nicosia, 30.2% Famagusta, 12.3% Kyrenia, 9.4% Guzelyurt and 7.5% Iskele. The proportion of newly diagnosed T1D was highest among children aged 9-12 years (35.5%) followed by children aged 5-8 years (32.7%). Newly diagnosed T1D most frequently presented in March and April. The overall mean incidence rate was 11.1/100,000 between 2001 and 2016. The incidence rates were similar and comparable among the years. Conclusion: This study is the first to analyze the incidence of T1D in Cyprus. Compared to other countries the incidence rate is intermediate. Our findings are similar to the incidence rates of T1D in South Cyprus and Turkey.
