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

Aims: This study aimed to establish a decisive threshold for the Glucose Tolerance peak (GTp) parameter in diagnosing Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) and to assess its diagnostic efficacy in comparison with other commonly employed indexes in clinical practice. Materials and methods: Conducted as a prospective observational cohort, the study enrolled 92 pregnant women between 24-28 weeks of gestation, who underwent an Oral glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) 100 gr. following a positive O'Sullivan screening at La Paz University Hospital. An additional 30-min sample was incorporated to assess the insulin response dynamics during hyperglycaemia. Basal indices and those derived from the OGTT 100 gr. test were computed. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves were utilized to determine the optimal cut-off points for the indexes derived from the OGTT. Informed written consent was obtained from all participants. Results: Significantly greater glucose tolerance, as indicated by GTp, was observed in the Non-Gestational Diabetes (NTG) pregnant group ( Conclusions: GTp, an index derived exclusively from the OGTT peak glycaemia, proves valuable in confirming the presence of GDM. The GTp could be used to confirm the presence of GDM under necessity of a second OGTT as test confirmation in pregnant woman. A cut-off of < 0. 36 has a specificity of 100% and a sensitivity of 75% for the diagnosis of GDM.
