Control of cardiometabolic risk factors and their association with carotid intima media thickness among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus-single center experience in a developing country.
Article in Turkish journal of medical sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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/aim: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is closely associated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD). The objective of this study was to describe the degree of ASCVD risk factor control and their association with carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) in T2DM patients followed up at a diabetes clinic in Southern, Sri Lanka. Materials and methods: A crosssectional study was conducted to examine the association between CIMT and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)in 300 T2DM patients. Both CIMT and its associations with modifiable cardiometabolic risk factors were examined using ultrasonography. The recommended optimal targets for risk factors were defined as glycated hemoglobin (HbA Results: SBP, DBP, LDL-C, TG, HDL-C, HbA Conclusion: The majority of patients have not achieved the recommended targets for ASCVD risk factors and are at high risk of ASCVD. It is therefore necessary to identify the reasons for not achieving the treatment targets in order to reduce the ASCVD burden by controlling LDL-C, TG, and NAFLD.
