Predictors of Cognitive Impairment among Filipino Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in a Tertiary Government Hospital.
Article in Acta medica Philippina, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients are predisposed to cognitive decline and dementia. The co-occurrence of the two diseases translate to a higher medical cost. Identification of factors contributing to cognitive impairment is warranted. Objective: To determine the predictors of cognitive impairment among Filipino patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Methods: This is a cross-sectional analytical study involving Filipino patients diagnosed with T2DM in the outpatient clinic. A total of 171 patients were included and were screened using AD8-P tool. Results: A total of 171 adult patients were included and screened for cognitive impairment.19.3% were cognitively impaired, with mean age of 59.6 years old (vs. 55.5 years old, p < 0.029), and two-thirds were female. The mean duration of the patient's diabetes was 11.2 years. After adjusting for confounders and multi-collinearity, the duration of diabetes was significantly associated with cognitive impairment with odds of developing cognitive impairment increasing as the duration reach 10 years above. Those with T2DM for at least ten years were 2.5 times more likely to develop cognitive impairment, holding the age constant. (OR = 2.5, 95% CI - 1.0 to 5.8, p < 0.043). Conclusion: 19.3% of Filipino patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in a tertiary government hospital are cognitively impaired and this can occur even in less than 65 years old. The ten years or longer duration of T2DM increases the risk of developing cognitive impairment by 2.5%.
