Cardiac autonomic dysfunctions in type 2 diabetes mellitus: an investigative study with heart rate variability measures.
Article in American journal of cardiovascular disease, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is a common yet underdiagnosed complication of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Heart rate variability (HRV), a sensitive diagnostic marker of cardiovascular risk, could help detect CAN at its earliest stage. However, the progression of CAN based on age and disease duration in T2DM is lacking. In this study, we propose to explore the occurrence of CAN in patients with varying stages and duration of T2DM. This cross-sectional study involves participants with T2DM (n = 160) and healthy volunteers (n = 40) with an age range of 30-60 years of both genders. Patients in the T2DM group were further subdivided into four subgroups based on their disease duration [Prediabetes, disease duration <5 yrs (D1), 5-10 yrs (D2), and >10 yrs (D3)]. All participants underwent short-term HRV recording for 20 minutes and analyzed for both time and frequency domain measures. The study results showed a significant increase in Heart Rate (HR) in D1 (P = 0.031) and D3 (P = 0.001) groups compared to healthy controls. The time-domain measures of HRV were significantly reduced in the T2DM group compared to the healthy controls. Furthermore, this reduction is more intense in the D3 group than in D2 and D1. Correspondingly, in frequency domain parameters: total power, high-frequency power, and low-frequency power were significantly reduced in all the T2DM groups compared to healthy controls. The study concludes that the overall HRV (as determined by total power), sympathetic activity (low frequency power) and parasympathetic activity (time domain measures and high frequency power) were significantly reduced in all the diabetic subgroups except prediabetes as compared to the healthy controls, implying that both sympathetic and parasympathetic limbs are symmetrically affected in T2DM patients even in the earliest stages (<5 yrs) implying subclinical cardiac autonomic dysfunction in the earliest stages.
