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

purposeTesting 1-h glucose (1HG) concentration during oral glucose tolerance test is cost-effective to identify individuals at risk of incident type 2 diabetes. Aim of the study was to define 1HG cutoffs diagnostic of incident impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) in youths with obesity, and to evaluate prevalence and association of cutoffs identified in the cohort and from the literature (133 and 155 mg/dl) to cardiovascular disease (CVD) in a population of youths with obesity.

methodsThis is a longitudinal study of 154 youths to identify 1HG cutoffs, and cross-sectional study of 2295 youths to estimate prevalence of high 1HG and association to CVD. Receiver-operating characteristic curves (ROC) were used to establish 1HG cutoffs, and univariate regression analyses to test association of 1HG to blood pressure, lipids and aminotransferases.

resultsROC analysis identified the 1HG cutoff of 159 mg/dl as having diagnostic accuracy of IGT with area under the ROC 0.82 (95% CI 0.66-0.98), sensitivity 0.86% and specificity 0.79%. In the cross-sectional population, prevalence of high 1HG was 36% and 15% for 133 and 155 mg/dl cutoffs, respectively, and 17% for the 159 mg/dl value. All the examined cutoffs were significantly associated with worse lipid profile, liver function test, reduced insulin sensitivity, secretion and disposition index.

conclusionHigh 1HG is marker of persistent IGT and increased risk of metabolic abnormalities in youths. The 155 mg/dl cutoff is a convenient estimate in young people but longitudinal studies with retinopathy and overt diabetes as end points are advised to verify the 1HG cutoff with the best diagnostic accuracy.
