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

objectivesThis is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (prototype). The objectives are as follows: Primary objective To determine the prognostic value of birth weight (BW) and prematurity in predicting the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) later in life (among adults, adolescents, and children) compared to normal BW and full-term birth. Secondary objectives To determine the prognostic value of BW and prematurity in predicting the incidence rates of diabetic neuropathy, diabetic retinopathy, and diabetic nephropathy, later in life (among adults, adolescents, and children) compared to normal BW and full-term birth.
