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

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the utility of C-peptide levels in the differentiation of monogenic forms of diabetes from type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in clinical practice. Subjects and Methods: A total of 104 patients aged >16 who visited the Dicle University's Faculty of Medicine between April 2011 and December 2020 and were diagnosed with monogenic diabetes by genetic analysis or with T1DM and T2DM were randomly selected for retrospective evaluation. The C-peptide levels of these patients at the time of diagnosis of diabetes were compared. Results: Of the 104 patients, 24 (23%) were diagnosed with maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY), 40 (38.5%) with T1DM, and 40 (38.5%) with T2DM. Median C-peptide levels (ng/mL) (interquartile range) were 1.78 (1.24-2.88) in MODY group, 0.86 (0.34-1.22) in T1DM group, and 2.38 (1.58-4.27) in T2DM group. Conclusions: There was a difference in C-peptide levels between MODY and T1DM groups but not between MODY and T2DM groups. As per clinical evaluations, although C-peptide levels of patients with MODY are similar to those of patients with T2DM patients, the possibility of C-peptide levels being similar to those required for T1DM diagnosis should also be considered.
