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

objectiveTo analyze indicators of access to health services and care among adults with Diabetes mellitus in Brazil, according to Primary Health Care coverage.

methodsA cross-sectional study using data from the 2019 National Health Survey (PNS). Only individuals who self-reported a diagnosis of Diabetes mellitus were selected. Explanatory variables represented indicators of care and access among adults with a Diabetes mellitus diagnosis. Prevalence and 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) were calculated for the indicators. The association with registration in a Family Health Unit was verified by bivariate analysis. Indicators with p≤0.05 were included in a logistic regression model and, subsequently, in a model adjusted for sex and age.

resultsAmong the Brazilian adult population, 8.2% (95%CI 7.9-8.6) self-reported a diagnosis of Diabetes mellitus. After adjustment, individuals with diabetes living in households registered in a Family Health Unit were more likely to have had their last consultation in a Primary Health Care Unit (OR=2.13; 95%CI 1.71-2.64), to have been seen by a specialist physician after referral (OR=1.97; 95%CI 1.49-2.60), and to report severe limitations in usual activities due to the condition (OR=1.65; 95%CI 1.05-2.62). On the other hand, they were less likely to have been seen by the same doctor as in previous consultations (OR=0.65; 95%CI 0.53-0.81) and to have undergone an eye exam in the past year (OR=0.73; 95%CI 0.58-0.90).

conclusionDisparities exist in care and access to Primary Health Care services among Brazilian adults with diabetes.
