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

backgroundTo examine medication use and simultaneous achievement of glycemic, blood pressure and lipid targets across body mass index (BMI) categories in Chinese adults with Type 2 diabetes.

methodsThis BMI-focused secondary cross-sectional analysis included 8590 adults with evaluable BMI recruited from 60 hospitals in the iCaReMe China Registry. The primary comparison was obesity versus normal weight for simultaneous achievement of HbA1c < 7.0%, blood pressure < 130/80 mmHg and LDL cholesterol < 2.6 mmol/L. Missing data were handled by multiple imputation (20 datasets; 20 iterations per chain), and associations were estimated with center-clustered generalized estimating equations (GEE).

resultsThe cohort comprised 99 (1.2%) adults with underweight, 2725 (31.7%) normal weight, 3663 (42.6%) overweight, and 2103 (24.5%) obesity. Among 6683 with all three observed components, 332 (5.0%) achieved the composite. Compared with normal weight, the pooled adjusted OR for obesity was 0.55 (95% CI 0.39-0.78); each 1-kg/m

conclusionsObesity was associated with lower odds of simultaneous target attainment, with component-specific associations for glycemia and blood pressure but not LDL-C. GLP-1 receptor agonists and SGLT2 inhibitors were used more often at higher BMI; these prescribing patterns do not establish treatment effectiveness.
