Prevalence and risk factors of retinal vein occlusion in individuals with diabetes: The kailuan eye 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
purposeThe aim of this study was to analyze the incidence of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) in patients with and without diabetes in the population and compare the influencing factors.
methodThe community-based Kailuan Eye Study included 14,440 participants (9835 male, 4605 female) with a mean age of 54.0 ± 13.3 years (range, 20-110 years). They underwent a systemic and ophthalmologic examination. RVO were diagnosed on fundus photographs.
resultBy matching for age and gender, we included a total of 2767 patients each with diabetes and non-diabetes. The prevalence of RVO among patients with and without diabetes was 1.5% and 0.8%, respectively. The prevalence of RVO was higher in patients with diabetes than in patients without diabetes in all age groups. Multifactorial regression analysis showed that only fasting blood glucose levels were significantly different between patients with RVO with or without DM. The occurrence of RVO in the group with diabetes was mainly associated with higher fasting glucose and systolic blood pressure; in the group without diabetes, RVO was mainly associated with higher diastolic blood pressure, Body Mass Index, and lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels.
conclusionWe found that patients with diabetes have increased risks of RVO. In addition to blood pressure control, we recommend educating patients with diabetes about RVO, to prevent its subsequent occurrence.
