Effect of echocardiography on prognosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveThere was a lack of studies on the relationship between the presence or absence of echocardiography and the prognosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. Therefore, we used the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-IV database to explore the relationship between them.
methodThe patient information was obtained from the MIMIC-IV database. Taking age, BMI, sex, race, and marital status as scoring items, Propensity Score Matching was carried out according to the ratio of 1: 1. Generalized linear regression, multivariate logistic regression and hierarchical analysis were used to analyze the correlation between echocardiography and prognosis in type 2 DM patients.
resultsA total of 9140 patients were enrolled in this study. There were differences in body mass index, days of type 2 DM, estimation of glomerular filtration rate, length of stay, survival time, readmission, marital status, family history of type 2 DM, drinking, smoking, metformin, coronary heart disease, heart failure, arrhythmia, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, cardiomyopathy, myocardial infarction, atherosclerosis, epilepsy, and thyroid diseases between patients with echocardiography and those without echocardiography. Echocardiography was independently related to survival time and readmission in type 2 DM patients. Besides, echocardiography was related to the survival time of patients with type 2 DM without complications.
conclusionsWe found for the first time that echocardiography was independently associated with the survival time of type 2 DM patients without complications.
