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: The study aimed to investigate the impact of serum Podoplanin levels on diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Patients and methods: Between January 2022 and December 2023, the Department of Nephrology at Nantong Second People's Hospital selected 276 patients with T2DM and 150 healthy controls for this investigation. Systematic data collection was performed to gather information on biomarkers and biochemical parameters. Results: When T2DM patients (n=276) and healthy controls (n=150) were compared, considerably lowered serum Podoplanin levels were observed. In all 276 patients, serum Podoplanin levels were negatively associated with age (r=-0.127, P=0.035), body mass index (BMI) (r=-0.292, P<0.001), duration of diabetes (r=-0.323, P<0.001), systolic blood pressure (SBP) (r=-0.255, P<0.001), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (r=-0.138, P=0.022), fasting blood glucose (FBG) (r=-0.196, P=0.001), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (r=-0.095, P=0.117), triglyceride (TG) (r=-0.157, P=0.009), total cholesterol (TC) (r=-0.126, P=0.036), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (r=-0.187, P=0.002), serum creatinine (Scr) (r=-0.500, P<0.001), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) (r=-0.339, P<0.001), and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) (r=-0.568, P<0.001), and was positively correlated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (r=0.343, P<0.001) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (r=0.442, P<0.001). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that diabetic patients with DN had lowered levels of serum Podoplanin (OR=0.022, 95% CI=0.005-0.100; P<0.001), lower SBP, Scr, NGAL, and KIM-1. Conclusion: The results indicated that diabetic patients with DN have lower levels of serum Podoplanin. A more considerable population-based prospective investigation is essential to validate our findings.
