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 prevalence of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus has been on the rise. With the dramatic increase in the prevalence of overweight, obesity, and inactivity amongst the population, it's becoming a common problem affecting antenatal women and their offspring. Subjects and Methods: A prospective cross-sectional study was carried out involving antenatal women between 24-28 weeks of gestation at a tertiary care centre in a rural part of Gujarat. Patients were screened using the Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Group India (DIPSI) guidelines. Analysis was carried out using Chi-square and ANOVA test. Results: Patients having PG2BS ≥140 mg/dl were diagnosed as having Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM), while those having PG2BS values between 120-139 mg/dl were diagnosed as having Gestational Glucose Intolerance (GGI). Out of the 300 patients screened, we found an overall prevalence of 52 (17.33%) having GDM and 65 (21.67%) having GGI. Most patients belonged to the age bracket of 21-30 years across all groups. The prevalence of GDM in rural antenatal women was 23 (44.2%) and in semi-urban antenatal women was 25 (48.1%) while GGI in the rural antenatal women was 45 (69.2%) followed by semi-urban antenatal women 19 (29.2). We found that Occupation, Residence, Lifestyle, Socio-Economic Class, Family history of Diabetes Mellitus, Body Mass Index (BMI) were all statistically significant whereas Antenatal Complications and Perinatal outcomes weren't. Conclusion: With such a high prevalence of GGI, almost equivalent to GDM, it is important to identify patients having GGI and monitor them to prevent progression to GDM by starting an appropriate treatment modality.
