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

objectiveThis study aimed to clarify the clinical significance of the maximum body mass index (BMI) before the onset of type 2 diabetes (MBBO) for predicting pancreatic beta-cell function.

methodsThis was a cross-sectional observational study. Of 1304 consecutively admitted patients with type 2 diabetes, we enrolled 410 patients satisfying the criteria in this study. The correlations between the C-peptide index (CPI), which is one of the parameters that reflects beta-cell function, and various clinical parameters, including MBBO and duration of diabetes, were analyzed in multiple linear regression analyses.

resultsThe analyses revealed that MBBO was correlated with CPI independently after adjustment for age, sex, HbA1c, and duration of diabetes. When we divided the subjects into three subgroups by MBBO (MBBO < 25 kg/m

conclusionsMBBO may be an independent factor correlating with beta-cell function and may predict insulin secretion capacity at diagnosis, but it does not seem to affect the rate of decline in insulin secretion capacity after diagnosis. It is important to preserve beta-cell function by decreasing a patient's BMI during treatment after diagnosis regardless of MBBO.
