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

Autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) is more common among diabetes mellitus (DM) patients and may impact its microvascular complications. The present study aimed to assess the relationship between AITD and the prevalence of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in patients with diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM1). Anthropometric parameters, parameters of metabolic control of DM, thyreometabolic status, and the UACR were assessed. DKD was diagnosed if patients' UACR level was ≥30 mg/g or eGFR level was <60 mL/min. This study involved 144 patients with DM1 aged 36.2 ± 11.7 years: 49 men and 95 women. Significant differences in creatinine, eGFR, and UACR levels were found in patients with DKD. fT3 concentration was significantly lower among DKD patients. A significantly higher probability of DKD was found in DM1 patients with lower fT3 levels. Patients with DM1 and AITD had significantly lower creatinine levels than the control group. However, the study did not show any significant relationship between AITD and the occurrence of DKD in patients with DM1. Significantly lower fT3 concentrations in DKD patients may be caused by metabolic disorders in the course of DKD and require further cohort studies in a larger population of patients with DM1 and AITD.
