Is Chinese Spring Festival a key point for glycemic control of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in China?

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
Objectives: This study aims to explore the long-term trend of fasting blood glucose (FBG) among urban patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and the impacts of the Chinese Spring Festival on their glycemic control in urban China. Methods: The general information and longitudinal monitoring data of patients with T2DM in Minhang District, Shanghai China from 15 December 2006 to 31 December 2015 were collected. The FBG records were grouped into three periods, namely, the preholiday period (2 months right before the Chinese Spring Festival), the holiday period (from 28 December to 7 January of the lunar calendar year), and the postholiday period (2 months after the Chinese Spring Festival). The Mann-Kendall trend test and Cochran-Armitage trend test were occupied to explore the long-term trend, and paired Results: From 2007 to 2015, the glycemic control rate in patients with T2DM showed an upward trend ( Conclusion: Chinese Spring Festival is a key point for glycemic control of patients with T2DM in China. Intensive holiday-specific diabetic healthcare needs to be further improved, and community-based interventions should be developed and implemented to control the possible holiday effects.
