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

This study aimed to show the proportion of fundus examinations in patients with diabetes who were scheduled for surgery. We retrospectively analyzed 455 consecutive patients with diabetes admitted for surgery. Just 49% had fundus examinations before hospitalization. The decision tree analysis showed that the type of family doctor was the first split associated with fundus examination; patients treated by a diabetes specialist were more likely to receive the examination. In this subgroup, glycated hemoglobin levels ≥8.0% and age ≥71 years were associated with a lower proportion of receiving the examination. In patients whose family doctor was not a diabetes specialist, glycated hemoglobin levels <7.2% and body mass index <27.4 kg/m
