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: The prevalence, incidence and risk factors and especially the effect of diabetic nephropathy (DN) and diabetic retinopathy on the risk of chronic limb threatening ischemia (CLTI) have been sparsely studied in individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Methods: The prospective cohort study consisted of 4697 individuals with T1D from the nationwide Finnish Diabetic Nephropathy (FinnDiane) Study. Medical records were thoroughly reviewed in order to ascertain all CLTI events. The key risk factors were DN and severe diabetic retinopathy (SDR). Findings: There were 319 events of confirmed CLTI, 102 prevalent events at baseline and 217 incident events during the follow-up of 11.9 (IQR 9.3-13.8) years. The 12-year cumulative incidence of CLTI was 4.6% (95% CI 4.0-5.3). Risk factors included presence of DN, SDR, age, duration of diabetes, HbA Interpretation: Diabetic nephropathy, especially kidney failure, is associated with high risk of limb threatening ischemia in individuals with T1D. The risk of CLTI increases gradually according to the severity of diabetic nephropathy. Also, diabetic retinopathy is independently and additively associated with high risk of CLTI.
