Microvascular reactivity using laser Doppler measurement in type 2 diabetes with subclinical atherosclerosis.

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
Microangiopathy should be noted in diabetes with subclinical vascular diseases. Little is known about whether various surrogate markers of systemic arterial trees exacerbate simultaneously in preclinical atherosclerosis. To clarify the association of skin microvascular reactivity with arterial stiffness is essential to elucidating early atherosclerotic changes. The post-occlusive reactive hyperemia of skin microcirculation was evaluated in 27 control and 65 type 2 diabetic subjects, including 31 microalbuminuria (MAU) and 34 normoalbuminuria (NAU) patients. The laser Doppler skin perfusion signals were transformed into three frequency intervals for the investigation of endothelial, neurogenic, and myogenic effects on basal and reactive flow motion changes. The analysis of spectral intensity and distribution provided insight into potential significance of microvascular regulation in subclinical atherosclerotic diseases. Systemic arterial stiffness was studied by the brachial ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV). Following occlusive ischemia, the percent change of endothelial flow motion was lower in MAU than in NAU and control groups. The MAU group revealed a relative increase in myogenic activity and a decrease in endothelial activity in normalized spectra. The baPWV showed more significant associations with reactive endothelial change (r = - 0.48, P < 0.01) and normalized myogenic value (r = - 0.37, P < 0.05) than diabetes duration and HbA1c. By multivariate regression analysis, only endothelial vasomotor changes independently contributed to the decreased baPWV (OR 3.47, 95% CI 1.63-7.42, P < 0.05). Impaired microcirculatory control is associated with increased arterial stiffness in preclinical atherosclerosis. To identify the early manifestations is necessary for at-risk patients to prevent from further vascular damage.
