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

objectiveOn June 18 2018, Japan experienced the North Osaka Earthquake. The shaking intensity was recorded as level 6 of the Japan Meteorological Agency Seismic Intensity Scale. Despite the severe shaking, damages of lifelines and transportation networks were limited, and they were completely recovered within several days. We investigated whether the glycemic control in patients with diabetes was deteriorated over months after the earthquake.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed diabetic outpatients attending the department of Metabolic Medicine, Osaka University Hospital, close to the epicenter of the earthquake, in 2018 (

resultsCompared to the same periods in 2017, mean HbA1c levels in 2018 were significantly higher 3-6 months after the earthquake (

conclusionGlycemic control was significantly deteriorated over months after the 2018 North Osaka Earthquake despite limited damage of lifelines and transportation networks. The deterioration was more prevalent in areas with a high seismic intensity.
