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 In this study, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between body fat percentage (BFP) and the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods We conducted a cohort study involving 336 singleton pregnant women attending an antenatal care clinic before 14 weeks of gestation. Body composition was measured during their first antenatal visit by using a multi-frequency segmental body composition analyzer. GDM was diagnosed by a 50-g glucose challenge test (GCT) and a 100-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) during the first visit and repeated during 24-28 weeks of gestation. Rates of GDM were compared between women with BFP ≥30% and those with BFP <30%. The ability of BFP and body mass index (BMI) to diagnose GDM was assessed, as well as their correlation. Results Of the 296 women included in the analysis, 171 had BFP ≥30%, and 125 had BFP <30%. The prevalence of GDM was 17.9%. BFP correlated well with BMI (correlation coefficient: 0.956, p<0.001). BFP ≥30% and BMI ≥25 kg/m
