Prevalence, treatment, control of type 2 diabetes and the risk factors among elderly people in Shenzhen: results from the urban Chinese population.
Article in BMC public health, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
backgroundType 2 diabetes is regarded as one of the major public health problems worldwide. We aim to investigate the prevalence, treatment, and control rate in the Chinese urban population aged 65 years or older and also identified associated risk factors.
methodsOne hundred twenty-four thousand seven participants aged 65 years old and older were recruited from January 2018 through December 2018 at local community health service centers in Shenzhen. Fasting plasma glucose, as well as other biochemical indicators, were measured by standard methods. The analysis of multivariate logistic regression was applied to assess associated risk factors of type 2 diabetes.
resultsApproximately 22.5% of elderly urban Chinese residents had diabetes. Among people with diabetes, 54.8% received medical treatment. Only 34.4% of those who were treated had their glycemic controlled. The prevalence of T2D increased with increasing age before 80 years old, male, inadequate active physical activity, drinking, previous history of CVD, higher BMI, central obesity, and hypertension.
conclusionsOur findings suggested that attention should be paid to the prevention and control of T2D in Chinese urban elderly population. The health policy department should develop effective strategies aimed at improving health care management of T2D in elderly adults.
