The Correlation of Prediabetes and Type 2 Diabetes With Adiposity in Adults.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Background: Fat metabolism is associated with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The aim of this study was to evaluate the detailed correlation of diabetes status with adiposity among adults. Methods: Briefly, 28,429 adults aged ≥18 years from both sexes in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2018 were included in this study. Multivariable linear regression models were used to examine associations of prediabetes and diabetes status, disease duration of T2DM, serum glucose, glycohemoglobin (HbA1c) with total percent fat (TPF), and fat mass distribution. Results: After adjusting for sociodemographic covariates, health behaviors, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, there were direct associations of prediabetes and T2DM status with TPF, trunk fat mass, android fat mass, gynoid fat mass and android to gynoid ratio compared with non-diabetes. But the fat mass decreased with the increase of the disease duration in patients with T2DM. Besides, when stratifying by diabetes status, we found direct associations of serum glucose and HbA1c with TPF, trunk fat mass, android fat mass, gynoid fat mass, and android to gynoid ratio in non-diabetic and prediabetic participants. But in patients with T2DM, inverse associations of serum glucose and HbA1c with fat mass were observed. Conclusions: This study indicated that adults with prediabetes and T2DM had significantly higher TPF, trunk fat mass, android fat mass, gynoid fat mass, and android to gynoid ratio compared with those without diabetes. Moreover, fat mass decreased as the disease duration increased in patients with T2DM. The associations of serum glucose and HbA1c with TPF and fat mass distribution in patients with T2DM were opposite to the relationships observed in non-diabetic and prediabetic participants.
