The Importance of Prediabetes Screening in the Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease.
Article in Medical archives (Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Background: Prediabetes is a disordered state of glucose metabolism defined by an elevated blood glucose level that is below the level required for the diagnosis of diabetes. Prediabetes is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The onset and progression of macrovascular disease occur during the prediabetes phase. Early diagnosis and screening of prediabetes are essential steps to prevent diabetes and its associated complications. Objective: To assess the prevalence of prediabetes and undiagnosed diabetes in patients with cardiovascular disease according to the ADA criteria. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 2968 a high cardiovascular risk patients aged 40 to 75 years admitted to the Department of Internal Medicine. Sociodemographic variables and other relevant medical history information were collected by the researchers during the clinical interview. A fasting blood sample was obtained to determine HbA1c levels and other relevant laboratory findings. Results: Of the total number of participants, 1496 participants were not diagnosed with diabetes, 485 (32.4%) of them had HbA1c values indicating prediabetes and 158 (10.6%) of them had HbA1c values indicating new diagnosed diabetes. Up to one-third of those with undiagnosed prediabetes had already been diagnosed with cardiovascular complications. Conclusion: Routine screening of glycemic metabolism could be valuable in identifying high-risk individuals before a cardiovascular event occurs.
