Effect of type-2 diabetes mellitus in long-term mortality in older adults: The NEDICES cohort study.
Review in Diabetes research and clinical practice, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
aimsTo describe the mortality associated with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in a Spanish elderly population during a 22-year period. PROCEDURES: Prospective follow-up study (1994-95 to 2017) including 4,998 individuals (≥65 years old at baseline) of three communities (one rural) from central Spain. T2DM diagnosis was recorded during a clinical interview in 1994-95 (self-reported and information from their doctors, including treatment). Mortality incidence until 2017 was checked.
resultsA total of 4,038 subjects were included, with a mean age of 73.6 (±6.6) years; 1,718 (42.5 %) were male and 685 (17.0 %) were diagnosed with T2DM. The mortality rate during follow-up was 85.2 %. Cardiovascular disease was the most frequent cause of death in DM2 subjects, followed by neoplasm. The mortality hazard ratio found for T2DM compared to non-T2DM subjects was 1.29 (1.16-1.45) after adjusting for multiple risk factors. The effect of TDM2 on the mortality rate remained significant in men (HR:1.27; CI 95 %:1.08-1.49;p = 0.005) and women (HR:1.32; CI 95 %:1.14-1.53;p < 0.001), with no differences between sexes (p = 0.705). MAIN
conclusionThe sustained reduction in T2DM elderly Spanish subjects' life expectancy address the necessity of community interventions and campaigns regarding lifestyle modifications and reinforce the need for an adequate and regular TDM2 subjects clinical follow-up.
