The Prevalence of Cardiovascular Disease and Other Comorbidities Among American Indian and Alaska Native Adults with Diabetes.
Article in EC endocrinology and metabolic research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
aimsAmerican Indians and Alaska Native (AI/ANs) peoples experience significant health disparities compared to the U.S. general population. We report comorbidities among AI/ANs with diabetes to guide efforts to improve their health status.
methodsDrawing upon data for over 640,000 AI/ANs who used services funded by the Indian Health Service, we identified 43,518 adults with diabetes in fiscal year 2010. We reported the prevalence of comorbidities by age and cardiovascular disease (CVD) status. Generalized linear models were estimated to describe associations between CVD and other comorbidities.
resultsNearly 15% of AI/AN adults had diabetes. Hypertension, CVD and kidney disease were comorbid in 77.9%, 31.6%, and 13.3%, respectively. Nearly 25% exhibited a mental health disorder; 5.7%, an alcohol or drug use disorder. Among AI/ANs with diabetes absent CVD, 46.9% had 2 or more other chronic conditions; the percentage among adults with diabetes and CVD was 75.5%. Hypertension and tobacco use disorders were associated with a 71% (95% CI for prevalence ratio: 1.63 - 1.80) and 33% (1.28 - 1.37) higher prevalence of CVD, respectively, compared to adults without these conditions.
conclusionDetailed information on the morbidity burden of AI/ANs with diabetes may inform enhancements to strategies implemented to prevent and treat CVD and other comorbidities.
