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

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) poses a significant global health burden. We developed a polygenic risk score (PRS) model based on genome-wide association study (GWAS) findings and integrated it with clinical data to predict T2D risk. This study analyzed electronic medical records from a major medical center in Taiwan, comprising 315,424 T2D cases and 141,484 controls. Fourteen genome-wide significant SNPs were identified and used to construct the T2D PRS. The integrated predictive model showed high accuracy (AUROC 0.842) and was validated in the Taiwan Biobank. A risk score ranging from 0 to 19 was established for clinical use. Phenome-wide association study (PheWAS) revealed links between PRSs and T2D-related complications, such as diabetic retinopathy and hypertension. Pathway analysis highlighted biological processes including IL-15 production and WNT/β-catenin signaling. Our findings support the use of PRSs in personalized T2D risk assessment and early prevention strategies.
