The combined impact of ankle-brachial index and transcutaneous oxygen pressure on mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes and foot ulcers.
Article in Acta diabetologica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
aimsA diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is associated with increased cardiovascular risk and mortality, independently of ulcer etiology (ischemic, neuro-ischemic or neuropathic). Ankle-brachial index (ABI) is the most commonly used test when diagnosing peripheral macrovascular disease and is a well-known marker for increased cardiovascular risk. Transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO
methodsType 2 diabetes patients aged <90 years, with at least one DFU who underwent vascular assessment with ABI and TcPO
resultsThe study enrolled 235 participants with a median age of 76 years. Individuals with either an abnormally high or low ABI in combination with a low TcPO
conclusionsCombining ABI and TcPO
