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

introductionGestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) continues to increase particularly for non-European women. This study aimed to identify and quantify risk factors for women diagnosed with gestational diabetes in New Zealand to identify women at higher risk.

methodsA national dataset of 601,166 eligible women who had ≥ 1 birth in New Zealand between January 2001 and December 2010 identified 11,459 women with gestational diabetes of whom 11,447 were randomly matched with 57,235 control women for age and year of delivery.

resultsAdjusted odds ratios (95% CI) showed higher odds of gestational diabetes for Asian (3.60, 3.39-3.82), Pacific (2.76, 2.57-2.96) and Māori (1.23, 1.15-1.31) women compared with European/Other women. Women most economically disadvantaged (1.44, 1.34-1.56), not registered with a lead maternity carer (1.16, 1.04-1.30) and those identified as smokers (1.20, 1.11-1.31) were more likely than control women to develop gestational diabetes. In contrast, women residing in rural (0.83, 0.77-0.88) and remote areas (0.68, 0.60-0.77) were less likely to develop gestational diabetes compared with women living in urban areas, and similarly for non-New Zealand resident women (0.78, 0.72-0.85) compared with resident women.

conclusionsWomen who were diagnosed with gestational diabetes were more likely to be non-European, economically disadvantaged, residing in urban areas, unregistered with a lead maternity carer and more likely to smoke. In addition to universal screening for pre-existing diabetes, all women at risk of gestational diabetes should be identified and supported to undertake to a 75 g glucose challenge test between 24 and 28 weeks.
