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

introductionMonitoring type 1 diabetes (T1D) trends across most European countries using objectively measured data and how this incidence has evolved over the past three decades should be considered a public health priority. This study protocol provides a standardised and transparent methodology to assess TD1 trends among 0-14-year-old children and adolescents across Europe from 1994 to 2021. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This protocol is guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols and the Cochrane Collaboration Handbook. The literature search will be conducted using MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL and Web of Science databases from 1994 to 2021. Observational cohort studies providing incidence rates for European children and adolescents diagnosed with T1D aged ≤14.9 years and studies written in English, Spanish or Portuguese will be included. The risk of bias of the included studies will be assessed using the Quality Assessment Tool for Observational Cohort and Cross-Sectional Studies from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute. Subgroup analyses will be performed based on gender, age, study year, country or European region. Metaregression analysis will be conducted using economic and geographic variables, such as gross national income of the country or geographic latitude. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The systematic review based on this protocol will provide a comprehensive description of T1D incidence trends in children and adolescents across Europe from 1994 to 2021. The results will be disseminated in a peer-reviewed journal and in mass media. This study will exclusively use data from published research, so institutional ethical approval is not required. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42021239480.
