Exploring the significance of phase angle in diabetes management: a narrative review.
Review in Diabetology international, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Purpose: The phase angle is a mathematical concept representing the time relationship between two periodic waveforms, and has gained some importance for its potential clinical applications. The purpose of this review was to investigate the role of phase angle in diabetes mellitus.Studies have investigated the relationship between the phase angle and glycemic control, insulin resistance, and diabetes-related complications. Phase angle has demonstrated its potential as a prognostic marker for diabetic complications, enabling early identification and intervention. It might be beneficial for evaluating disease severity, monitoring treatment response, and predicting long-term results in diabetics. Results and conclusion: Although the phase angle offers significant advantages, its clinical use in managing diabetes is still in its early stages, and there are certain issues that need to be resolved. Standardization of measurement techniques and interpretation criteria is essential to ensure consistency and comparability across studies and clinical settings. Investigating the role of phase angle in the treatment of diabetes provides significant knowledge about its potential as a non-invasive and informative parameter. Identifying the importance of phase angle in diabetes might help to improve risk stratification, treatment strategies, and patient outcomes. Additional research is required to determine its therapeutic value and discover the mechanisms underlying its association with diabetes and its complications.
