Diabetes-related amputations in Germany: analysis of time trend from 2015 to 2022 and differences by area-level socioeconomic deprivation.
Article in Journal of health monitoring, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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: Diabetes-related amputations reduce health-related quality of life and are an indicator of the quality of care of diabetes. Methods: Population-based age-standardized rates for diabetes-related cases of major and minor amputation were calculated and reported for the years 2015 - 2022 using the Diagnosis-related groups statistics. For 2022 these rates were also reported according to area-level socioeconomic deprivation. Results: Diabetes-related major amputations decreased from 6.8 to 5.2 per 100,000 residents in women and from 18.6 to 17.5 per 100,000 residents in men between 2015 and 2022. In 2021 and 2022, there was no further decrease in men compared to the previous year. Diabetes-related minor amputations decreased in women between 2015 and 2022, but increased in men. Amputation rates were higher in regions with high deprivation than in regions with low deprivation. Conclusions: Diabetes care should consider socioeconomic differences into account. The monitoring of the trends in amputations needs to be continued.
