Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Prevalence and Associated Risk Factors in Postmenopausal Women.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Introduction Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most common problem in postmenopausal women. This study aimed to find out the prevalence of T2DM and its risk factors in postmenopausal women. Methods The study is a population-based cross-sectional study. Anthropometric measurements, blood pressure, and biochemical measurements of 2295 postmenopausal women up to the age of 55 years were taken following face-to-face interviews. Odds ratio was used to find out the role of risk factors associated with T2DM. Results Prevalence of T2DM was reported to be 15.51%. Significant contribution of waist circumference (WC) followed by body mass index (BMI), total cholesterol (TC), and triglycerides (p<0.05) was noted in increasing the risk of T2DM. No association was found between T2DM and hypertension (p>0.05). Conclusion A high prevalence of T2DM was reported in postmenopausal women. Higher levels of BMI, WC, TC, and triglycerides were found to be the major risk factors for T2DM.
