Lifetime Interpersonal Violence or Abuse and Diabetes Rates by Sex and Race.
Article in American journal of preventive medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionLifetime exposure to interpersonal violence or abuse has been associated with several chronic diseases, including adult-onset diabetes, yet this pattern has not been confirmed by sex and race within a large cohort.
methodsData from the Southern Community Cohort Study collected between 2002-2009 and 2012-2015 were used to explore the relationship between lifetime interpersonal violence or abuse and diabetes (N=25,251). Prospective analyses of lower-income people living in the southeastern U.S. were conducted in 2022 to examine the risk of adult-onset diabetes associated with lifetime interpersonal violence or abuse by sex and race. Lifetime interpersonal violence or abuse was defined as (1) physical or psychological violence, threats, or abuse in adulthood (adult interpersonal violence or abuse) and (2) childhood abuse or neglect.
resultsAfter adjustment for potentially confounding factors, adult interpersonal violence or abuse was associated with a 23% increased risk of diabetes (adjusted hazard ratio=1.23; 95% CI=1.16, 1.30). Diabetes risks associated with childhood abuse or neglect were 15% (95% CI=1.02, 1.30) for neglect and 26% (95% CI=1.19, 1.35) for abuse. When combining adult interpersonal violence or abuse and childhood abuse or neglect, the risk of diabetes was 35% higher (adjusted hazard ratio=1.35; 95% CI=1.26, 1.45) than those experiencing no violence, abuse, or neglect. This pattern held among Black and White participants, and among women and men.
conclusionsBoth adult interpersonal violence or abuse and childhood abuse or neglect increased the risk of adult-onset diabetes in a dose-dependent pattern for men and women, and by race. Intervention and prevention efforts to reduce adult interpersonal violence or abuse and childhood abuse or neglect could not only reduce the risk of lifetime interpersonal violence or abuse but may also reduce one of the most prevalent chronic diseases, adult-onset diabetes.
