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

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentrations and ketosis risk in adults with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A total of 1266 newly diagnosed T2DM patients were consecutively enrolled. Participants were categorized into ketosis-prone T2DM (KPDM, n = 243) and non-ketosis-prone T2DM (n = 1023) groups based on urinary ketone status. Serum 25(OH)D levels, metabolic parameters, and the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio were measured. The KPDM group demonstrated significantly lower 25(OH)D levels (median 15.05 vs 17.50 ng/mL, P < .001) and a higher prevalence of vitamin D deficiency (<20 ng/mL: 69.9% vs 61.5%, P = .03). Seasonal variation analysis revealed consistently lower 25(OH)D levels in KPDM patients than in non-ketosis-prone T2DM patients during the summer-autumn months (17.25 vs 20.30 ng/mL, P < .001). Multivariate logistic regression revealed vitamin D deficiency, younger age, an elevated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and increased hemoglobin A1c levels as independent predictors of ketosis development. Vitamin D deficiency is independently associated with increased odds of ketosis susceptibility in new-onset T2DM patients.
