Lifestyle Changes and Remission in Patients With New-Onset Type 2 Diabetes: A Nationwide Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of Korean medical science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundLifestyle-related factors have been studied as a fundamental aspect in the onset and progression of type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, behavioral factors are easily overlooked in clinical practice. This study investigated whether lifestyle changes were associated with diabetes remission in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients.
methodsWe enrolled patients with new-onset type 2 diabetes from 2009 to 2012 using a health examination cohort from the Korean National Health Insurance Service (KNHIS). Remission was defined as a fasting glucose level less than 126 mg/dL at least once during a health examination after stopping medication. A self-administered questionnaire was used to investigate patients' lifestyles. We investigated smoking, alcohol consumption, and regular exercise before and after starting diabetes medication and the odds ratios (ORs) of logistic regression on remission to evaluate the associations.
resultsA total of 138,211 patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes from 2009 to 2012 were analyzed, and 8,192 (6.3%) reported remission during the follow-up period to 2017. Baseline fasting blood glucose level measured before starting diabetes medication was significantly higher in the non-remission group (180 mg/dL vs. 159 mg/dL,
conclusionWe confirmed associations between a healthy lifestyle and diabetic remission in new-onset type 2 diabetes patients. The results of this study suggest that improving lifestyle after diabetes diagnosis may contribute to disease remission.
