Perirenal fat thickness as a superior obesity-related marker of subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
Objective: Emerging evidence highlighted that perirenal adipose tissue might regulate the cardiovascular and metabolism system through several pathways. This study aimed to assess the association between perirenal fat thickness (PrFT) and subclinical carotid atherosclerosis (SCCA) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Method: A total of 670 participants with complete data were included in this study. The trained reviewer collected demographic and anthropometric information. Laboratory assessments were determined by standard methods. PrFT and SCCA were evaluated by computed tomography and ultrasound. Binomial logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the association between PrFT and SCCA. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was conducted to evaluate the identifying value of PrFT for SCCA. Results: Overall, the prevalence of SCCA was 61.8% in T2DM. PrFT was significantly increased in the SCCA group. Growing trends were observed in the prevalence of hypertension, carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) > 1, plaque, and SCCA across the PrFT quartiles. Spearman correlation analysis revealed that PrFT was positively associated with cIMT ( Conclusion: PrFT was independently associated with cIMT, plaque, cIMT > 1 mm, and SCCA as a superior obesity-related marker of SCCA in T2DM.
