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: Diabetes organizations recommend nutrition education by a registered dietitian (RD) at least annually following type 1 diabetes (T1D) diagnosis in children. The study objectives were to describe differences over time in annual RD follow-up in children with T1D and to identify patient characteristics associated with RD engagement. Research Design and Methods: Data based on 6034 completed diabetes medical visits among 1982 patients aged <18 years with T1D for ≥1 year followed at a pediatric, tertiary care, academic medical center over a 5-year period (2018-2022) were analyzed. Generalized estimating equations models assessed for differences over time in the rates of RD visit completion in the year preceding the last diabetes medical encounter and identified sociodemographic, diabetes care-related, and clinical patient characteristics associated with RD follow-up. Models were fit for the whole sample and groups subset by race and ethnicity. Results: Observed annual RD follow-up rate over the 5-year period was 20.8%, with the lowest adjusted percentage in 2021 compared to 2018. In multivariable analysis, for each year increase in age ( Conclusions: Annual RD visit frequency among children with T1D is suboptimal. Study findings provide insights for targeted intervention to improve RD engagement. RD follow-up may be associated with improved glycemic outcomes.
