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

Studies have found that the measurement of body composition can be used to identify the gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) risk in pregnant women. However, few studies focused on the relationship between body composition and GDM development in low GDM risk population. Thus, the objective of this study was to examine the association between body composition and the development of GDM in pregnant women with low risk of gestational diabetes.A retrospective case-control study was conducted. We reviewed the medical records of 3965 pregnant women who had body composition measurement from March, 2016 to May, 2018 in our hospital. Their sociodemographic, clinical data, and body composition information were collected from medical record. Multiple logistic regression analyses were used.A total of 2698 subjects were eligible for the study. The mean age of the gravidas was 30.95 ± 4.01 years old. Of all gravidas, 462 had gestational diabetes. Percentage body fat was the strongest risk factor for gestational diabetes after adjusting pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) (odds ratio = 1.786, 95% confidence interval = 1.112-2.866, P = .02). The age and extracellular water/intracellular water ratio were independently associated with gestational diabetes.Percentage body fat was the strongest risk factor for gestational diabetes after adjusting pre-pregnancy BMI. Assessment of body composition may provide important guidance to identify gestational diabetes in pregnant women with low gestational diabetes risk.
