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

The clinical utility of a type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) polygenic risk score (PRS) in the East Asian population remains underexplored. We aimed to examine the potential prognostic value of a T2DM PRS and assess its viability as a clinical instrument. We first established a T2DM PRS for 5490 Korean individuals using East Asian Biobank data (269,487 samples). Subsequently, we assessed the predictive capability of this T2DM PRS in a prospective longitudinal study with baseline data and data from seven additional follow-ups. Our analysis showed that the T2DM PRS could predict the transition of glucose tolerance stages from normal glucose tolerance to prediabetes and from prediabetes to T2DM. Moreover, T2DM patients in the top-decile PRS group were more likely to be treated with insulin (hazard ratio = 1.69, p value = 2.31E-02) than were those in the remaining PRS groups. T2DM PRS values were significantly high in the severe diabetes subgroup, characterized by insulin resistance and
