Incidence and sex differences of diabetes among youth: a 50-year population-based cohort study.

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
aimsAlthough the literature on childhood diabetes has traditionally focused on Type 1 diabetes (T1D), youth-onset Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and its associated morbidities have become increasingly prevalent. This study reports on the incidence and demographics of a population-based cohort of children diagnosed with diabetes over a 50-year period.
methodsMedical records of patients < 22 years diagnosed with diabetes from January 1, 1970, through December 31, 2019, were retrospectively reviewed using the Rochester Epidemiology Project, a database of clinics and hospitals in Olmsted County, Minnesota.
resultsOf 606 children diagnosed with diabetes, 519 (85.6%) were diagnosed with T1D at a mean age of 10.9 ± 5.3 years. 87 (14.4%) were diagnosed with T2D at a mean age of 17.4 ± 3.4 years. The incidence of T2D increased 23-fold (p < 0.001) over the five-decade period (5 per 100,000 children/year) while T1D remained stable (26 per 100,000 children/year; p = 0.08). The mean body mass index at T2D diagnosis (35.5 kg/m
conclusionsThe incidence of youth-onset T2D increased significantly over the 50-year period while the incidence of T1D remained stable. A higher proportion of females were diagnosed with youth-onset T2D. Females with T2D were more than six times likelier to develop diabetic retinopathy than males.
