Prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus in Germany: Temporal trend and differences by regional 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. Cited by 8 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: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) increases the risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes. In 2012, a general screening for GDM was introduced in Germany. Methods: The analysis is based on data from the external inpatient quality assurance for obstetrics from the years 2013 to 2021. Women with pregestational diabetes were excluded. GDM was defined either by documentation in the maternity record or by ICD diagnosis O24.4 during hospitalisation. We reported the prevalence stratified by year, maternal age and regional socioeconomic deprivation. Results: The age-standardized prevalence of GDM continuously rose from 4.7 % in 2013 to 8.5 % in 2021. The increase was observed in all age groups. In 2021, this corresponded to 63,563 women with GDM. The prevalence was higher in highly deprived regions than in low deprived regions. Conclusion: A steady increase in GDM prevalence and evidence of health inequalities emphasise the need for primary prevention strategies for GDM.
