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

introductionPrediabetes (preDM) is a state of disordered glucose metabolism rather than a distinctive clinical entity representing an interim condition and a risk factor for the development of diabetes. Diagnosis of asymptomatic people to assess the risk for development of DM should be done in overweight or obese adults (BMI ≥ 25 kg/m

objectivesTo correlate glycated hemoglobin (HbA MATERIALS &

methodsThe present case control study was performed at Pt. B. D. Sharma PGIMS, Rohtak includes thirty prediabetic patients of age group 20-40 years diagnosed on the basis of HbA

resultsThe correlation coefficient between BMI (27.01 ± 2.91 kg/m

conclusionObesity is a risk factor for glycation of hemoglobin & hence, it is an effective measure for prevention of prediabetes and diabetes.
