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

Background: The present study aimed to evaluate the frequency of silent cerebral small-vessel disease, especially lacunes and white matter hyperintensities, in patients with or without the impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and type-2 diabetes mellitus, and to characterize the diabetes-correlated factors related to silent cerebral small-vessel disease. Methods: This is a retrospective cross-sectional study. Totally 698 patients were included in this study, from January 2014 to December 2019, among which 270 patients were included in the diabetes mellitus group, 106 patients were included in the IGT group, and 322 patients were included in the Control group. All patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging to investigate the silent cerebral small-vessel disease: the lacunes and the white matter hyperintensities. All the baseline information and diabetes-related factors, such as glycated hemoglobin level, insulin usage, etc., were collected. Then correlation analysis and regression analysis were used to explore the correlation between diabetes with related risk factors and silent cerebral small-vessel disease. Results: Lacunes and white matter hyperintensities were more common in the diabetes mellitus group than in the IGT group and the Control group, with an occurrence of lacunes of 83.3% Conclusions: Lacunes and white matter hyperintensities, are more common in the diabetes mellitus patients than in the IGT patients or in the other patients. The occurrence of lacunes was correlated with the duration of diabetes mellitus and the age, while the occurrence of white matter hyperintensities was independently correlated with the age.
