Correlation of Baba's diabetic neuropathy classification with various diabetes-related complications.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
It is known that Baba's diabetic neuropathy classification (BDC) is useful in quantitative evaluation of Diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN). In this study, we aimed to investigate the possible association between BDC and various diabetic microvascular and macrovascular complications in patients whose neuropathy was evaluated with BDC. As the results, BDC was significantly correlated with the severity of diabetic retinopathy and nephropathy. BDC was also significantly correlated with history of myocardial infarction or cerebral infarction, carotid IMT, and ABI. These data suggest that BDC may be useful in predicting the presence of various diabetic microvascular and macrovascular complications. The data also support the idea that we should perform further investigation of other diabetes-related complications in patients with severe DPN.
