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

objectiveChildhood obesity may impact the risk of islet autoimmunity (IA). The trajectory of BMI through childhood resembles the early peak incidence of first-appearing autoantibodies against insulin (IAA-first) but not GAD65 (GADA-first). We studied whether a child's BMI can impact the age-related risk of first-appearing IA phenotypes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND

methodsWe identified 7,724 children at risk for IA with at least three BMI measurements in The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study. We modeled the risk of IAA-first, GADA-first, and IA overall on a child's BMI z score and change in BMI during infancy (age 2 weeks to 1.5 years, n = 7,724), early childhood (age 1.5-8.5 years, n = 6,396), and puberty (age 8.5-15 years, n = 4,732) using joint modeling of longitudinal BMI and time-to-event IA.

resultsAn infant's BMI z score was not associated with IA risk before 18 months of age (n = 185, hazard ratio [HR] 1.03 [95% CI 0.88, 1.19]). In contrast, a child's BMI correlated with an increased risk of IA from 1.5 to 8.5 years of age (n = 470, HR 1.20 [95% CI 1.04, 1.32]) and from 8.5 to 15 years of age (n = 209, HR 1.27 [95% CI 1.09, 1.49]). No interactions with first-appearing IA phenotypes were observed. However, high BMI z score (SD >0.5) from age 9 months increased the risk of IA in early childhood, specifically for children with HLA-DR4/4 or HLA-DR4/8 and not with HLA-DR3/3 or HLA-DR3/4 (HLA ∗ BMI interaction, P < 0.005).

conclusionsThe contribution of BMI to risk of IA during early childhood is dependent on the HLA-DR-DQ genotype more so than the first-appearing IA phenotype.
