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

Aims: This study evaluated the performance of the Advanced-DiaRem scoring system for predicting initial remission of type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) in the Persian population. Methods: A retrospective cohort study with cross-sectional telephone interviews was conducted, including adults with T2DM who underwent SG between 2016 and 2023. Baseline clinical, biochemical, and diabetes-related variables were collected, and Advanced-DiaRem scores were calculated. The primary outcome was initial T2DM remission, defined as initial physiological success rather than long-term, sustained remission. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis using Youden's Index evaluated model discrimination, and Decision Curve Analysis quantified clinical utility. Multivariable logistic regression identified independent predictors of initial remission. Results: Ninety-three patients (72.0% female) with a mean age of 49.1 ± 9.8 years were included, of whom 45.2% (95% CI: 34.9, 55.5) achieved initial remission. Remission was significantly associated with baseline HbA1c levels. The Advanced-DiaRem scoring system showed limited discriminatory performance (AUC 64.5%); the optimal cutoff <9 yielded 69% sensitivity, 59% specificity, 58% PPV, 70% NPV, 63% accuracy, LR+ of 1.68, and LR- of 0.53. Conclusion: The Advanced-DiaRem score showed limited accuracy in predicting initial T2DM remission after SG in this cohort. This study suggests that model recalibration or the development of population-specific prediction tools may improve predictive accuracy.
