Intake of animal and plant proteins and risk of all-cause mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes: results from NHANES.
Article in European journal of clinical nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
BACKGROUND/
objectiveThere is little and inconsistent data on the relationship between protein intake and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes. Our goal was to look at the relationship between consuming plant- and animal-based proteins and the risk of all-cause death in patients with type 2 diabetes. SUBJECTS/
methodsWe included 4646 patients with type 2 diabetes aged ≥20 years participating in continuous NHANES from 1999 to 2018. All-cause mortality was ascertained through linkage to National Death Index until December 31, 2019. Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to estimate multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95%CIs.
resultsOver an average follow-up of nine years, 969 deaths took place. The multivariable-adjusted HRs of all-cause mortality across quartiles of plant protein intake, were, respectively, 1.00 (reference), 0.77 (95%CI: 0.65, 0.93), 0.79 (95%CI: 0.64, 0.97), and 0.73 (95%CI: 0.58, 0.93) (P
conclusionsAmong individuals with type 2 diabetes, a higher intake of plant protein is linked to a lower risk of death from all causes. Nevertheless, the results should be interpreted with caution because some subgroups did not show an inverse relationship, and observational studies have limitations.
