Correlation Analysis Between Obesity Index and Glycosylated Hemoglobin Level in Type 2 Diabetes Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Diabetes, metabolic syndrome and obesity : targets and therapy, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Introduction: The global prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is increasing rapidly. However, the relationship between obesity indexes and Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels remains unclear. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 3,898 patients with T2DM who were treated in the Department of Endocrinology at Yuxi People's Hospital between March 2018 and December 2024. Participants were grouped according to whether their HbA1c levels were below 7.0%. Linear regression analysis was performed to evaluate the associations between body mass index (BMI), visceral fat area (VFA), and waist circumference (WC) with glycosylated hemoglobin. In addition, a correlation matrix was generated. Results: Participants with HbA1c ≥ 7.0% were slightly younger (52.9 ± 11.3 vs 53.9 ± 11.7 years, p = 0.017) and had higher BMI (25.4 ± 3.6 vs 25.1 ± 3.5 kg/m Conclusion: There was no significant correlation between obesity indexes and HbA1c levels among patients with T2DM.
