Fasting blood glucose level and risk of all-cause and cause-specific mortality in peritoneal dialysis patients.
Article in Journal of diabetes, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundGlycemic control is crucial in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients with diabetes. Although fasting blood glucose (FBG) is the most commonly used index to measure blood glucose levels, there is currently no evidence supporting the association between FBG level and mortality risk in PD patients.
methodsA total of 3548 diabetic PD patients between 2002 and 2018 were enrolled from the National Health Insurance Service database of Korea. We investigated the association between FBG levels and the risk of all-cause and cause-specific mortality.
resultsPatients with FBG levels 80-99 mg/dL exhibited the highest survival rates, whereas those with FBG levels ≥180 mg/dL had the lowest survival rates. Compared with FBG levels 80-99 mg/dL, the adjusted hazard ratios and 95% confidence interval for all-cause mortality significantly increased as follows: 1.02 (0.87-1.21), 1.41 (1.17-1.70), 1.44 (1.18-2.75), and 2.05 (1.73-2.42) for patients with FBG 100-124 mg/dL, FBG 125-149 mg/dL, FBG 150-179 mg/dL, and FBG ≥180 mg/dL, respectively. The risk for all-cause mortality also showed an increasing pattern in patients with FBG levels <80 mg/L. The risk of cardiovascular death significantly increased as FBG levels exceeded 125 mg/dL. However, the risk of infection-related and malignancy-related deaths did not show a significant increase with increasing FBG levels.
conclusionThere was an increase in the risk of all-cause mortality as FBG levels exceeded 125 mg/dL in PD patients with diabetes, and the risk of cardiovascular death showed a strong correlation with FBG levels compared with other causes of death.
