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

purposeHypertension is a growing public health problem with a remarkable contribution to morbidity and mortality. It is a common condition which usually coexists with diabetes and aggravates its complications. The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence and determinants of hypertension among diabetic patients attending their follow-up at Jimma University Medical Center (JUMC) from June 1 to August 30, 2019.

methodsA hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted in diabetic patients attending their follow-up at JUMC. Systematic random sampling and a pretested interviewer-administered structured questionnaire were used to collect information. Data were entered into EPI data 3.1 and exported to SPSS version 20. A variable having a p-value of <0.25 in the bivariate model was subjected to multivariate analysis to avoid the confounding variable's effect. Adjusted odds ratios were calculated at the 95% confidence interval and considered significant with a p-value of <0.05.

resultsA total of 366 diabetic patients were included in the study. Their mean age was 50.1 ± 14.28 years, and the mean duration of diabetes was 6.8 ± 5.3 years. The study finding showed that the prevalence of hypertension among diabetic patients was 37.4%. According to the multivariate logistic regression analysis, age of ≥50 years [AOR = 4.79; 95% CI: 1.4, 16.4], having body mass index (BMI) of ≥25 [AOR = 3.11; 95% CI: 1.58, 6.12] and khat chewing [AOR =19.34; 95% CI: 10.26, 36.44] were independent predictors of hypertension among diabetic patients.

conclusionOur study found that there is high prevalence of hypertension among diabetic patients. Age of ≥50 years, having BMI of ≥25 kg/m
