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: Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the chronic inflammation and cause of endothelial dysfunction (ED). Heart rate variability (HRV) is a marker of sympathetic and parasympathetic autonomic nervous system dysfunction. We investigated the association of lipid profile, inflammatory biomarkers, endothelial dysfunction, and heart rate variability in adolescents with T1DM among UAE population. Method: In this case-control study we recruited 126 adolescents (13-22 years) from Abu Dhabi, UAE (United Arab Emirates). Demographic, anthropometric, blood and urine samples were collected after an overnight fasting. HRV measurements were determined per Task Force recommendations. Independent Results: The mean ages in control (n = 47) and patient (n = 79) groups were 17.5 ± 4.6 and 18.6 ± 4.8 years, respectively. A family history of diabetes and waist and hip circumferences significantly differed between the groups (p = 0.030 and 0.010). The patients with T1DM exhibited significantly higher levels of atherogenic markers than control. Endothelial dysfunction biomarkers such as levels of sICAM-1 (p < 0.001), adiponectin (p < 0.001) and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (p < 0.001) were significantly different in the control group compared with those in the T1DM group. There was a significant difference in SDNN intervals, NN50, pNN50, and SD1/SD2 among the two groups. In adjusted analysis, total cholesterol (adjusted Odds Ratio (aOR): 2.78, 95 % CI:1.37-5.64; p = 0.005), LDL (2.66, 95%CI:1.19-5.92; p = 0.017), and triglycerides (5.51, 95%CI:1.57-19.41; p = 0.008) were significantly associated with developing T1DM. The HRV indicators were significantly associated with decrease odds of T1DM after controlling for SBP, BMI, and family history of DM. Conclusion: In this study, adolescents with T1DM showed a significant association with lipid profile, ED, and HRV compared with controls. Thus, an early attention to diabetes control is required to reduce the risk of cardiac autonomic neuropathy leading to various cardiovascular diseases.
