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

objectiveHypertension predicts the development of diabetes. However, there are still lacking high-quality studies on the correlation between mean arterial pressure (MAP) and incident diabetes. We aimed to explore the relationship between MAP and diabetes in Chinese adults.

designThis is a secondary retrospective cohort study and the data were downloaded from the 'DATADRYAD' database (www.Datadryad.org).

participantsThe study included 210 418 adults without diabetes at baseline between 2010 and 2016 across 32 sites and 11 cities in China.

settingThe target-independent and dependent variables were MAP measured at baseline and diabetes occurred during follow-up. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to explore the relationship between MAP and diabetes. PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURES: The outcome was incident diabetes, which was defined as fasting blood glucose ≥7.00 mmol/L and/or self-reported diabetes during follow-up. Patients were censored either at the time of the diagnosis or at the last visit, whichever comes first.

results3927 participants developed diabetes during a 5-year follow-up. After adjusting covariates, MAP positively correlated with diabetes (HR=1.008, 95% CI 1.005 to 1.011, p<0.001), and the absolute risk difference was 0.02%. E-value analysis and multiple imputations were used to explore the robustness of the results. The relationship between MAP and diabetes was also non-linear, and the inflection point of MAP was 100.333 mm Hg. Subgroup analysis revealed a stronger association between MAP and diabetes in people with age (≥30,<50 years old), fasting plasma glucose <6.1 mmol/L and drinking. Additionally, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves showed the predictive performance of MAP for diabetes was similar to systolic blood pressure (SBP) (area under the curve (AUC)=0.694 with MAP vs AUC=0.698 with SBP).

conclusionsMAP is an independent predictor for a 5-year risk of incident diabetes among Chinese adults. The relationship between MAP and diabetes is also non-linear. When MAP is below 100.333 mm Hg, MAP is closely positively related to diabetes.
