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

Background: Early-onset diabetes appears to be an aggressive phenotype of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The impact of the age of onset of T2D on albuminuria, especially high urinary albumin excretion, remains to be investigated. Objective: To determine whether adults diagnosed with T2D between the ages of 18 and 45 more aggressively develop albuminuria. Methods: Conducted at Taizhou People's Hospital from November 2018 to August 2020, this cross-sectional study enrolled T2D patients. Anthropometric measures, metabolic profiles, and urinary albumin creatinine ratio were examined. Patients were categorized into early-onset (≤45 years) and late-onset (> 45 years) groups. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify albuminuria risk factors. Subgroups were formed based on age at diabetes diagnosis and gender. Multivariate ordinal logistic regression analysis was then conducted to identify distinct risk factors within each subgroup. Results: Analyzing 1900 T2D patients, it was found significantly higher albuminuria prevalence in early-onset patients (35.08% vs 29.92%, P = 0.022). The risk of albuminuria in early-onset patients was 1.509 times higher than that in late-onset patients, especially among male patients, where the risk increased to 1.980. For late-onset patients, disease duration and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were identified as risk factors, whereas for early-onset patients, body-mass index (BMI) and systolic blood pressure were associated with increased risk. Among male patients, age at diagnosis of diabetes, blood pressure, and BMI were identified as risk factors, while for female patients, disease duration and HbA1c played a significant role. Additionally, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol was found to be a protective factor against albuminuria. Conclusion: Individuals diagnosed with T2D before 45 face heightened albuminuria risk, especially males. Risk factors vary by gender and onset age, highlighting the need for tailored management strategies.
