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

Background There is a high prevalence of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The influencing factors of LVDD in T2DM are not fully understood.  Objective This study aimed at assessing the prevalence of LVDD in T2DM as well as looking at the association between various parameters related to T2DM with LVDD in patients with T2DM. Materials and methods This was a single-centre cross-sectional study in Kerala, India. The primary objective of the study was to assess the prevalence of LVDD in T2DM. The secondary objectives were to look for an association between higher glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), complications of T2DM, age, and gender of the patient with the presence of LVDD. Results A total of 80 patients were included in the study. There were 40 patients with LVDD with a prevalence of 50%. There was a statistically significant positive association between increased age, longer duration of diabetes, higher HbA1C, the presence of diabetic neuropathy, diabetic retinopathy, and diabetic nephropathy with the prevalence of LVDD. A logistic regression analysis demonstrated that the presence of diabetic retinopathy is a risk factor for LVDD in the study subjects.
