The pattern of dyslipidemia among Somali type 2 diabetic patients: a cross-sectional study.
Article in European journal of medical research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundDiabetes mellitus (DM) is a major public health concern. This study aims to determine frequency, pattern, and potential determinants of dyslipidemia among adults with type 2 DM (T2DM) at Somalia's only diabetes outpatient clinic.
methodsFive hundred twenty-nine consecutive patients with T2DM who applied to our outpatient clinic between January 2020 and June 2020 were included in this cross-sectional hospital-based study. Demographic characteristics of participants, including lipid panel, were extracted from the registry system. Correlation analysis was performed between lipid profile and related parameters. Multivariate binary logistic regression models were used to identify independent determinants of dyslipidemia for further analysis.
resultsThe overall population's mean age was 51.9 ± 12.2 years, with 177 (33.5%) males. Total and atherogenic dyslipidemias were found in 92.8% and 24.8%, respectively. The most common isolated pattern of dyslipidemia was high non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) (82.8%), followed by high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (72.6%), high total cholesterol (TC) (54.3%), and low HDL-C (48.3%). Females were found to have a higher prevalence of high TC (63.4% vs. 54.2%, p = 0.043) and lower HDL-C (57.4% vs. 46.3%, p = 0.016). High LDL-C with low HDL-C was the most common pattern among combined type dyslipidemias (18.1%), followed by high LDL-C with high triglyceride (TG) (17.8%), as well as low TG with low HDL-C (3.6%). Females had a higher proportion of high LDL-C with low HDL-C than males (20.3% vs. 13.6%, p = 0.036). Age, gender, body mass index, central obesity, spot urinary proteinuria, fasting blood glucose, poor glycemic control, creatinine, and Hs-CRP were all associated with different dyslipidemia patterns in multivariate logistic regression analyses.
conclusionsWe found that the prevalence of dyslipidemia, especially atherogenic patterns, was extremely high among Somali T2DM patients. An enhanced health policy should, therefore, be established to detect, treat and prevent dyslipidemia.
