Lipid profile in women of different ethnicity with gestational diabetes: Relationship with fetal growth.
Article in Journal of diabetes investigation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
AIMS/
introductionPregnancy complicated by gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is characterized by excessive insulin resistance that impairs the metabolism of glucose and lipids. the aim of the study was to examine lipid profiles during pregnancy of women with GDM, and its impact on fetal growth in a multiethnic population. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe study included 322 pregnant women of different ethnicity with GDM attending a clinical unit specializing in metabolic diseases.
resultsThe area under the curve for the 75-g oral glucose tolerance test and glycated hemoglobin were significantly different among all groups. At the time of being diagnosed with GDM, Asian and African mothers had significantly lower levels of total and low-density liprotein cholesterol than European mothers (P < 0.001). The trend for high-density liprotein cholesterol was similar. Triglycerides levels in the Asian group (193.6 ± 65.5 mg/dL) were higher than in the African group (133.2 ± 49.6 mg/dL, P < 0.001), whereas the European group presented intermediate values (175.8 ± 58.8 mg/dL), which differed significantly only versus the African group (P < 0.001). Pre-partum lipid profiles showed a trend quite similar to that observed at diagnosis. The newborn's birthweight was significantly different, with that of African women (3,437 ± 503 g) being the highest, followed by that of European women (3,294 ± 455 g) and of Asian women (3,006 ± 513 g). The rates of macrosomia showed a trend with higher values in the African group (13.5%), followed by the European group (5.7%, P = 0.1162), whereas that of the Asian group was zero (P = 0.0023 vs African).
conclusionsOur data show that lipid profiles in women with GDM differ by ethnicity. The impact of lipid profile on fetal growth is limited and uninfluenced by ethnicity.
