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

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease that is considered to be life-threatening. It can affect any part of the body over time, resulting in serious complications such as nephropathy, neuropathy, and retinopathy. In this work, several supervised classification algorithms were applied for building different models to predict and classify eight diabetes complications. The complications include metabolic syndrome, dyslipidemia, neuropathy, nephropathy, diabetic foot, hypertension, obesity, and retinopathy. For this study, a dataset collected by the Rashid Center for Diabetes and Research (RCDR) located in Ajman, UAE, was utilized. The dataset consists of 884 records with 79 features. Some essential preprocessing steps were applied to handle the missing values and unbalanced data problems. Furthermore, feature selection was performed to select the top five and ten features for each complication. The final number of records used to train and build the binary classifiers for each complication was as follows: 428-metabolic syndrome, 836-dyslipidemia, 223-neuropathy, 233-nephropathy, 240-diabetic foot, 586-hypertension, 498-obesity, 228-retinopathy. Repeated stratified k-fold cross-validation (with k = 10 and a total of 10 repetitions) was employed for a better estimation of the performance. Accuracy and F1-score were used to evaluate the models' performance reaching a maximum of 97.8% and 97.7% for accuracy and F1-scores, respectively. Moreover, by comparing the performance achieved using different attributes' sets, it was found that by using a selected number of features, we can still build adequate classifiers.
