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

Objectives: Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) run lower risk for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA, aortic diameter ≥ 30 mm) and its complications. We aimed to evaluate associations between disturbances in glucose metabolism and arterial stiffness, AAA, and abdominal aortic diameter in 65-year-old men. Methods: Forty-eight 65-year-old men with screening-detected AAA and 115 men with normal abdominal aortic diameter underwent examination of glucose metabolism and arterial stiffness. Results: Men with AAA had higher BMI, waist-hip ratio (WHR), frequency of DM, haemoglobin A Conclusion: In this population-based study hyperinsulinaemia as a marker of insulin resistance, but not hyperglycaemia or aortic stiffness, was associated with AAA and abdominal aortic diameter in 65-year-old men.
