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

backgroundWith the increasing incidence of diabetes worldwide, patients diagnosed with diabetes has been getting younger. Previous studies have shown that high remnant cholesterol (RC) level leads to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease events. However, the relationship between RC levels and newly diagnosed early-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is unknown. This study aimed to explore the association between RC and newly diagnosed early-onset T2DM.

methodsA total of 606 patients newly diagnosed with early-onset T2DM and 619 gender-matched subjects with normal blood glucose levels were retrospectively enrolled in this study. All T2DM patients showed onset age of 18-40 years. Binary logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze independent risk factors and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to explore the predictive value of RC and other unconventional lipids. Moreover, the correlation between RC and insulin resistance in patients with newly diagnosed early-onset T2DM was also examined with binary logistic regression analysis and Spearman correlation analysis.

resultsIncreased RC level was an independent risk factor for early-onset T2DM (p < .05). The area under the curve on ROC analysis of RC was 0.805, 95% confidence interval (CI) was 0.781 ~ 0.826, sensitivity was 82.18% and specificity was 66.24%, which showed higher predictive value than those of triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio and total cholesterol (TC)/HDL-C ratio. Cutoff value of RC was 0.32 mmol/L. Level of RC in early-onset T2DM patients with moderate or severe insulin resistance was significantly higher than that in patients with mild insulin resistance (p < .0001). No difference in RC levels was found between patients with moderate and severe insulin resistance (p > .05). RC was still correlated with insulin resistance after adjusting the conventional lipid parameters (TG, TC, HDL-C, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol) using partial correlation analysis.

conclusionRC level was higher in patients with early-onset T2DM and was correlated to the degree of insulin resistance as well. Patients aged 18-40 years with RC >0.32 mmol/L showed an increased risk of developing T2DM.
