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

backgroundThe burden of diabetes is exceptionally high among American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) peoples. The Indian Health Service (IHS) and Tribal health programs provide education, case management, and advanced practice pharmacy (ECP) services for AI/ANs with diabetes to improve their health outcomes.

objectiveThe objective of this study was to evaluate patient outcomes associated with ECP use by AI/AN adults with diabetes. RESEARCH

designThis observational study included the analysis of IHS data for fiscal years (FY) 2011-2013. Using propensity score models, we assessed FY2013 patient outcomes associated with FY2012 ECP use, controlling for FY2011 baseline characteristics. SUBJECTS: AI/AN adults with diabetes who used IHS and Tribal health services (n=28,578). MEASURES: We compared health status and hospital utilization outcomes for ECP users and nonusers.

resultsAmong adults with diabetes, ECP users, compared with nonusers, had lower odds of high systolic blood pressure [odds ratio (OR)=0.85, P<0.001] and high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (OR=0.89, P<0.01). Among adults with diabetes absent cardiovascular disease (CVD) at baseline, 3 or more ECP visits, compared with no visits, was associated with lower odds of CVD onset (OR=0.79, P<0.05). Among adults with diabetes and CVD, any ECP use was associated with lower odds of end-stage renal disease onset (OR=0.60, P<0.05). ECP users had lower odds of 1 or more hospitalizations (OR=0.80, P<0.001).

conclusionsFindings on positive patient outcomes associated with ECP use by adults with diabetes may inform IHS and Tribal policies, funding, and enhancements to ECP services to reduce disparities between AI/ANs and other populations in diabetes-related morbidity and mortality.
