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

objectivesThis study's objectives were to compare the participation rates of people with and without disabilities who had type 2 diabetes in a diabetes pay-for-performance (DM P4P) program, as well as their care outcomes after participation.

methodsThis was a retrospective cohort study. The data came from the disability registry file, cause of death file, and national health insurance research database of Taiwan. The subjects included patients newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes between 2001 and 2013 who were followed up with until 2014 and categorized as disabled and non-disabled patients. The propensity score matching method was used to match the disabled with the non-disabled patients at a 1:1 ratio. Conditional logistic regression analysis was used to determine the odds ratio between the disabled and non-disabled patients who joined the P4P program. The Cox hazard model was used to compare the risk of dialysis and death between the disabled and non-disabled patients participating in the P4P program.

resultsThere were 110,645 disabled and 110,645 non-disabled individuals after matching. After controlling for confounding factors, it was found that the disabled individuals were significantly less likely (odds ratio = 0.89) to be enrolled in the P4P program than the non-disabled individuals. The risk of dialysis was 1.08 times higher for people with disabilities than those without, regardless of their participation in the P4P program. After enrollment in the P4P program, the risk of death for people with disabilities decreased from 1.32 to 1.16 times that of persons without disabilities. Among the people with disabilities, the risk of death for those enrolled in the P4P program was 0.41 times higher than that of those not enrolled. The risk of death was reduced to a greater extent for people with disabilities than for those without disabilities upon enrollment in the DM P4P program.

conclusionPeople with disabilities are less likely to be enrolled in the P4P program in Taiwan and have unequal access to care. However, the P4P program was more effective at reducing mortality among people with disabilities than among those without.
