Microalbuminuria (Moderate Albumin Excretion) and its relationship with Silent myocardial ischemia in treatment naïve type II diabetic patients.
Article in Pakistan journal of medical sciences. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
objectiveTo determine the frequency of microalbuminuria (MAU) or Moderate Albumin Excretion (MAE) in treatment naïve type II diabetic patients and to compare the frequency of silent myocardial ischemia in treatment naive Type-II diabetic patients with and without microalbuminuria.
methodsIt was a cross sectional survey conducted in the outpatient Department, Jinnah Hospital Lahore, from 30th May 2015 to 29th November 2015. There were 227 patients, (consecutive treatment naïve type II diabetic patients), presenting to outpatient department were enrolled in the study. MAU/MAE, silent myocardial ischemia and effect modifiers like HbA1C > 7%, smoking pack years and dyslipidemia was determined. MAU/MAE was determined by urinary albumin excretion rate of 30-300 mg/24 hours and included patients underwent exercise tolerance test to diagnose silent myocardial ischemia.
resultsOut of total 165 patients (72.7%) were male and remaining 62 patients (27.3%) were female. The 54 patients (23.8%) had MAU/MAE. The 44 patients (19.4%) had silent myocardial infarction. When we cross tabulated microalbuminuria with silent myocardial infarction, result were significant. Out of 54 patients with MAU/MAE, 16 cases had silent myocardial infarction.
conclusionThe frequency of microalbuminuria/ Moderate Albumin Excretion in treatment naïve type II diabetic patients was high and associated with the frequency of silent myocardial ischemia in treatment naïve type II diabetic patients with and without MAU MAU/MAE.
