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

Background: Prevalence of diabetes is on a rising trend worldwide as well as in India. Diabetes control remains suboptimal in India's noncommunicable diseases (NCD) clinics despite the implementation of the National Programme for Prevention and Control of Non-Communicable Diseases (NP-NCD). This study assessed glycemic status and determinants among diabetics attending health and wellness center (HWCs)-urban primary health centers (UPHCs). Materials and Methods: Cross-sectional study of 164 type 2 diabetics (≥6 months duration) consecutively recruited from NCD clinics of two UPHCs in the months of October and November 2025. Glycemic status was determined using hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) where available, or fasting and postprandial blood glucose values according to the American Diabetes Association criteria. Medication adherence was measured using the Hill-Bone Medication Adherence Scale and blood investigation compliance was measured objectively. Multivariable logistic regression identified determinants of uncontrolled glycemic status, and a sensitivity analysis restricted to participants with HbA1c measurements was performed. Results: The proportion of diabetics with uncontrolled glycemic status was 59.8% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 51.8-67.3). Significant predictors included male gender (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 2.59; 95% CI: 1.11-6.05; Conclusion: High uncontrolled glycemia (59.8%) among NCD clinic attendees underscores implementation gaps. Male gender, long duration, and investigation non-compliance drive poor outcomes. Point-of-care testing and targeted interventions can optimize primary care diabetes management under the NP-NCD.
