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

OBJECTIVE AND

backgroundThe early detection of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) plays a crucial role in enhancing outcomes. We developed a nomogram prediction model for screening DKA in T2D patients. At the same time, the input variables were adjusted to reduce misdiagnosis.

methodsWe obtained data on T2D patients from Mimic-IV V0.4 and Mimic-III V1.4 databases. A nomogram model was developed using the training data set, internally validated, subjected to sensitivity analysis, and further externally validated with data from T2D patients in Aviation General Hospital.

resultsBased on the established model, we analyzed 1885 type 2 diabetes patients, among whom 614 with DKA. We further additionally identified risk factors for DKA based on literature reports and multivariate analysis. We identified age, glucose, chloride, calcium, and urea nitrogen as predictors in our model. The logistic regression model demonstrated an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.86 (95%CI: 0.85-0.90]. To validate the model, we collected data from 91 T2D patients, including 15 with DKA, at our hospital. The external validation of the model yielded an AUC of 0.68 (95%CI: 0.67-0.70). The calibration plot confirmed that our model was adequate for predicting patients with DKA. The decision-curve analysis revealed that our model offered net benefits for clinical use.

conclusionsOur model offers a convenient and accurate tool for predicting whether DKA is present. Excluding input variables that may potentially hinder patient compliance increases the practical application significance of our model.
