Association of conventional and emerging adiposity indices with albuminuria in Indian type 2 diabetic adults.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 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
Background: Central adiposity may contribute more strongly to renal injury than overall obesity in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), particularly in South Asian populations characterized by higher visceral fat at lower body mass index (BMI). Objective: To evaluate six adiposity indices-BMI, weight-adjusted waist index (WWI), body adiposity index (BAI), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), a body shape index (ABSI), and body roundness index (BRI)-and identify the superior predictor of albuminuria in Indian adults with T2DM. Methods: In this hospital-based cross-sectional study, 364 adults with T2DM were enrolled consecutively. Albuminuria (normo-, micro-, or macroalbuminuria) was determined using the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio. Group differences were assessed using Welch's ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis tests. Associations were examined using Spearman's correlation and binary and multinomial logistic regression adjusted for age, systolic blood pressure, HbA1c, smoking, and serum creatinine. Results: WWI, ABSI, BMI, and BAI differed across albuminuria categories ( Conclusion: Central adiposity indices WWI and ABSI show modest, independent, and graded associations with albuminuria severity in Indian adults with T2DM.
