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

Purpose of the review: This narrative review examines the association between meat consumption and the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), with a focus on gender-specific effects. Results: Prospective cohort studies indicate that processed and red meat consumption is associated with an increased risk of T2DM, with stronger associations generally observed in men. In contrast, white meat shows weaker and inconsistent associations, with modest increases in risk reported more often in women. Summary: The evidence supports the relevance of gender in dietary recommendations for the prevention of T2DM. Biological and behavioral differences, such as hormonal profiles, iron metabolism, fat distribution and culinary habits, may underlie sex-specific susceptibilities. Personalized dietary strategies should take these differences into account to improve prevention.
