Prevalence of DSPN and Its Risk Factors Among Type 2 Diabetes Patients Attending Xuhang Community Health Service Center, in Shanghai, China.

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
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of distal symmetrical polyneuropathy (DSPN) among Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients in the suburbs of Shanghai, China, and identify associated risk factors. Material and Methods: The screening process consisted of information registration, clinical consultation, and laboratory testing, which included hematological parameters, hepatic and renal function profiles, metabolic markers (glycemic control and lipid profiles), tumor biomarkers, and urinalysis. Additionally, the process involved screening tests for peripheral neuropathy, skin condition assessment, evaluation of toe deformities, and lower extremity vascular examination. The results were initially analyzed using univariate analysis, and variables with statistical significance were subsequently incorporated into logistic regression modeling to evaluate the associated risk factors. Results: The prevalence of DSPN was 45.53%. Univariate analysis found that diabetes duration, cardiovascular disease (CVD), dry skin, callus, dorsalis pedis artery pulsation (DPAP), posterior tibial artery pulsation (PTAP), popliteal artery pulsation (PP), age, red blood cell (RBC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and creatinine (Cr) are statistically significant. The results of the logistic regression showed that age, dry skin, callus, and Cr are statistically significant among the risk factors for DSPN. Conclusion: T2DM patients in suburban areas exhibit a high prevalence of DSPN, with age, dry skin, callus, and elevated Cr levels serving as major risk factors for its development.
