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 explore the diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome and analyze the risk factors of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

methods141 T2DM patients, who were hospitalized in department of endocrinology of our hospital from February 2020 to December 2020, were chosen as research subjects. The patients were divided into an observation group (n=65, T2DM with MCI) and a control group (n=76, T2DM with normal cognitive function) according to the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score and diagnostic criteria of MCI. Pearson correlation analysis was used to study the correlation between MoCA score and influencing factors, and multiple logistic regression analyses were applied to analyze the risk factors of T2DM patients.

resultsDeficiency of kidney essence (34/65, 52.31%) and phlegm obstructing orifices (16/65, 2.62%) were common in T2DM patients with MCI. The observation group had apparently lower MoCA scores than the control group (23.46±3.12 points vs. 27.39±2.56 points,

conclusionMental deficiency and phlegm obstruction are common in T2DM patients complicated with MCI. The factors such as age, diabetes course, education degree, HCY and HbAlc are closely related to MCI. The occurrence of MCI in T2DM patients can be prevented by improving the education degree of patients, effective control of blood glucose and reduction of HCY level.
