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

aimsThere is uncertainty whether traditional glycemic metrics remain associated with long-term outcomes among patients with type 2 diabetes who achieve recommended continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) targets. This study was aimed to investigate the association of glycated albumin (GA) and ratio of glucose management indicator to GA (GMI/GA) with risks of all-cause mortality in type 2 diabetes achieving CGM targets. MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 3482 patients with type 2 diabetes who met CGM targets, defined as time in range (TIR) >70%, time below range (TBR

resultsDuring a median follow-up of 11.0 years, 514 patients (14.8%) died. GA exhibited significant linear positive association with risks of all-cause mortality, and the highest GA quartile had 34% increased risk (HR = 1.34, 95% CI 1.01-1.78). Conversely, GMI/GA ratio showed significant non-linear association (p for nonlinearity = 0.042). Compared with the reference third quartile (0.36-0.40), participants in the lowest quartile (<0.30) had 40% higher risk of all-cause mortality (HR = 1.40, 95% CI 1.10-1.80).

conclusionAmong patients achieving CGM targets, elevated GA and lower GMI/GA were associated with higher risks of all-cause mortality. These findings suggest that traditional glycemic metrics may complement CGM metrics in the assessment of long-term risks.
