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: To screen a general pediatric population for type 1 diabetes (T1D), celiac disease (CD), and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) after home capillary sampling. Methods: Swedish schoolchildren between 6-9 years and 13-16 years of age were invited to screening by taking a capillary sample at home. Samples were returned by mail and assessed for autoantibodies associated with T1D, CD, and AITD. Persistently autoantibody-positive children were referred for clinical follow-up. Results: Of 19,593 invited, 3,527 (18.0%) consented to participate and 2,315/3,527 (65.6%) returned a blood sample of sufficient volume. Hemolysis occurred in 830/2,301 (36.1%) samples. After exclusion of 42 children with previously known T1D, CD, or AITD, and two autoantibody-positive children who declined a confirmatory sample, 2,271/19,593 (11.6%) were included. 211/2,271 (9.3%) had persistent autoantibodies: 60/2,271 (2.6%) with T1D autoantibodies, 61/2,271 (2.7%) with CD autoantibodies, and 99/2,271 (4.4%) with AITD autoantibodies; 9/2,271 (0.4%) were autoantibody positive for ≥1 disease. After clinical follow-up, 3/2,271 (0.1%) were diagnosed with T1D, 26/2,271 (1.1%) with CD, and 6/2,271 (0.3%) with AITD. Children with a first-degree relative (FDR) with T1D, CD, and/or AITD, had higher occurrence of autoantibodies compared to children without an FDR (63/344, 18.3%, vs. 148/1,810, 8.2%) ( Conclusion: Screening for T1D, CD, and AITD by home capillary sampling in a Swedish general pediatric population detected autoimmunity in 9.3% and undiagnosed disease in 1.5%.
