Metabolic Syndrome in Patients With Diabetes Mellitus.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Aim Our study aims to assess the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) in patients with diabetes mellitus, identify its determinants, and determine the correlation between MS and degenerative complications. Method A retrospective, descriptive and analytic study was conducted at the Endocrinology, Diabetology, and Nutrition department of the Hassan II University Hospital in Fez, over the period between January 2009 and January 2019. We included in our study all type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients. The presence of metabolic syndrome was defined according to the criteria of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and American Heart Association/National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (AHA / NHLBI) Joint Scientific Statement (2009). The data were entered in Microsoft Excel (Microsoft Corporation. 2018). and analyzed using SPSS software (IBM Corp. Released 2015. IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 23.0. Armonk, NY: IBM Corp). Result A total of 1034 patients were included in this study; 78.7% were type 2 diabetics (T2D) and 21.3% were type 1 diabetics (T1D). The average age was 52,06 ± 17,33 years in T2D and 27,04 ± 9,66 years in T1D. 65,5% were females. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 78.4% for T2D, and 27.3% for T1D. The most common abnormality was high blood pressure in T2D (87.7%), and visceral obesity in T1D (68.3%). The most common triad was the association of increased waist circumference, hypertension, and diabetes (in 25,5% of T2D and 20% of T1D). By comparing the population of diabetics with metabolic syndrome (MS) and those without, we noticed a significant difference (p<0.05) concerning age, gender, all components of MS (high blood pressure, abdominal obesity, hyper triglyceridemia (TG), and hypo high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Diabetic retinopathy and ischemic heart disease were the only chronic complications correlated with MS (p <0.05). Conclusion High prevalence of metabolic syndrome in diabetic patients. Its screening and the specific treatment of its various components are essential in order to reduce the complications which jeopardize the functional as well as the vital prognosis of these patients.
