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

The aim of this prospective cross-sectional study was to reveal clinical characteristics of Japanese diabetic patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) presenting ischemic unhealed ulcer/gangrene (Fontaine stage IV) in the real-world settings. The present study included 132 Japanese diabetic patients who underwent endovascular therapy for CLTI presenting Fontaine stage IV. The prevalence of diabetes-related complications, as well as prior history of ankle-brachial index (ABI) measurement before CLTI onset, was evaluated adopting multiple imputation (50 times). Duration of diabetes was referred to as time from diagnosis. The patients were aged 70 ± 10 years, with duration of diabetes 23 ± 12 years. The diabetes-related complications were so common that only 17% (95% confidence interval: 11-24%) and 25% (17-33%) of the population were free from advanced micro- and macroangiopathies, respectively. The clustering of advanced macroangiopathies was not significantly associated with duration of diabetes (
