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

The burden of type 2 diabetes is growing, not only through increased incidence, but also through its comorbidities. Concordant comorbidities for type 2 diabetes, such as cardiovascular diseases, are considered expected outcomes of the disease or disease complications, while discordant comorbidities are not considered to be directly related to type 2 diabetes and are less extensively addressed under diabetes management. Here we show that the combination of concordant and discordant comorbidities appears frequently in persons with diabetes (75%). Persons with combined comorbidities visited family physicians more than persons with discordant, concordant or no comorbidity (17.3 ± 10.2, 11.6 ± 6.5, 8.7 ± 6.8, 6.3 ± 6.6 visits/person/year respectively, p < 0.0001). The risk of death during the study period was highest in persons with combined comorbidities and discordant only comorbidities (HR = 33.4; 95% CI 12.5-89.2 and HR = 33.5; 95% CI 11.7-95.8), emphasizing the contribution of discordant comorbidities to the outcome. Our study is unique as a long-term follow-up of an 11-year cohort of 9725 persons with new-onset type 2 diabetes. The findings highlight the contribution of discordant comorbidity to the burden of the disease. The high prevalence of the combination of both concordant and discordant comorbidities, and their appearance before the onset of type 2 diabetes, indicates a continuum of morbidity.
