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

backgroundSocial determinants of health are social and economic factors that influence health intervention outcomes. Type 2 diabetes is a highly prevalent disease, primarily affecting individuals in low-to-middle-income countries. However, the association between social determinants and cardiovascular complications in type 2 diabetes has not been widely studied.

aimTo examine the relationship between social determinants of health and cardiovascular complications in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study with an analytical component at a national-level referral hospital for military personnel in Bogota, Colombia. Patients treated at the diabetes clinic between September 2021 and December 2022 who met the inclusion criteria were included. A total of 583 patients participated in the study. We performed descriptive, bivariate, and binary logistic regression analyses, adjusting for confounding variables.

resultsAmong the 583 patients included, urban residency [odds ratio (OR) = 3.05, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01-9.20] and a middle or high educational level (OR = 2.33, 95%CI: 1.14-4.72) were associated with an increased risk of coronary artery disease. Additionally, receiving diabetes education beyond that provided by the clinic (OR = 2.15, 95%CI: 1.14-4.05) and lack of access to spaces for physical activity (OR = 4.05, 95%CI: 1.31-12.5) were associated with a higher risk of diabetic nephropathy and cerebrovascular disease, respectively.

conclusionPrograms for diabetes management should account for social determinants of health that contribute to cardiovascular complications and increased healthcare costs. Population-based studies are needed to guide targeted interventions and clarify causal relationships.
