Assessment of insulin resistance in preterm children appropriate for gestational age versus term and preterm children with intrauterine growth restriction.
Article in Pediatric endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionEstimation of carbohydrate metabolism parameters in the groups: AGA preterm, SGA term, SGA preterm and AGA term. MATERIAL AND
methods89 children were qualified: group A - AGA preterm 22, group B - SGA preterm 26, SGA term group C - 30 children, AGA - term group D - 11 children; at the age of 6-7 years. Insulin and fasting glucose levels were measure. HOMA IR and QUICKI, lipid profile were calculated.
resultsHigher insulin concentration were found in groups C vs. A (6.93 vs. 3.68 uIU/ml, p = 0.00005); B vs A (5.49 vs. 3.68 uIU/ml, p = 0.02). HOMA IR was significantly higher in the C vs A group (1.38 vs. 0.73, p = 0.00014); and B vs A (1.11 vs. 0.73, p = 0.03). Quicki were lower in C vs. A (0.7 vs. 0.96, p = 0.00068).
conclusionsThe risk of insulin resistance appears to be more associated with lower birth weight than time of birth. No greater risk of insulin resistance has been established in preterm births with AGA.
