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

objectiveTo predict the major comorbidities of type 2 diabetes based on the distribution characteristics of syndromes, and to explore the relationship between TCM syndromes and comorbidities of type 2 diabetes.

methodsBased on the electronic medical record data of 3413 outpatient visits from 995 type 2 diabetes patients with comorbidities, descriptive statistical methods were used to analyze the basic characteristics of the population, the distribution characteristics of comorbidities, and TCM syndromes. A neural network model for the prediction of type 2 diabetic comorbidities based on TCM syndromes was constructed.

resultsPatients with TCM syndrome of

conclusionThe fully connected neural network model study showed that syndrome characteristics are highly correlated with type 2 diabetes comorbidities. Syndrome location is commonly in the heart, spleen, stomach, lower
