Spatial epidemiology of diabetes: Methods and insights.
Review in World journal of diabetes, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 32 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a growing epidemic with global proportions. It is estimated that in 2019, 463 million adults aged 20-79 years were living with DM. The latest evidence shows that DM continues to be a significant global health challenge and is likely to continue to grow substantially in the next decades, which would have major implications for healthcare expenditures, particularly in developing countries. Hence, new conceptual and methodological approaches to tackle the epidemic are long overdue. Spatial epidemiology has been a successful approach to control infectious disease epidemics like malaria and human immunodeficiency virus. The implementation of this approach has been expanded to include the study of non-communicable diseases like cancer and cardiovascular diseases. In this review, we discussed the implementation and use of spatial epidemiology and Geographic Information Systems to the study of DM. We reviewed several spatial methods used to understand the spatial structure of the disease and identify the potential geographical drivers of the spatial distribution of DM. Finally, we discussed the use of spatial epidemiology on the design and implementation of geographically targeted prevention and treatment interventions against DM.
