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 purpose of this study was to analyze the risk of glaucoma based on diabetes status using a large nationwide longitudinal cohort of postmenopausal women. This study included 1,372,240 postmenopausal women aged ≥ 40 years who underwent National Health Screening Program in 2009. Subjects were classified into the following 5 categories based on diabetes status: no diabetes, impaired fasting glucose (IFG), new onset diabetes, diabetes treated with oral hypoglycemic medication, and diabetes treated with insulin. Subjects were followed from 2005 through 2018, and hazard ratios of glaucoma onset were calculated for each group. Subgroup analyses of subjects stratified by age, smoking, drinking, hypertension, and dyslipidemia were performed. During the follow up period, 42,058 subjects developed glaucoma. The adjusted hazard ratio was 1.061 (95% CI, 1.036-1.086) in the IFG group, 1.151 (95% CI, 1.086-1.220) in the new onset diabetes group, 1.449 (95% CI, 1.406-1.493) in the diabetes treated with oral hypoglycemic medication group, and 1.884(95% CI, 1.777-1.999) in the diabetes treated with insulin group compared to the no diabetes group. The results were consistent in subgroup analyses after stratifying by age, lifestyle factors (smoking and drinking), and comorbidities (hypertension and dyslipidemia). Diabetes status is associated with increased risk of glaucoma development in postmenopausal women.
