Lower body mass index is not of more benefit for diabetic complications.
Article in Journal of diabetes investigation, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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/
introductionTo investigate the relationship between different body mass index (BMI) levels and vascular complications in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. MATERIALS AND
methodsData were collected from 3,224 individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (male/female: 1,635/1,589; age 61.31 ± 11.45 years), using a retrospective case study design. The association of BMI quintiles and diabetes mellitus vascular complications was assessed using multiple logistic regression models adjusting for age, sex, diabetes duration, smoking status, drinking and other confounders, using those with the lowest quintile of BMI as the reference group.
resultsWith increasing BMI, the detection rate of diabetic peripheral neuropathy and peripheral arterial disease initially decreased and then it increased, whereas the detection rate of diabetic kidney disease and carotid atherosclerotic plaques showed an upward trend; however, diabetic retinopathy was irregular. The odds ratios of diabetic peripheral neuropathy decreased as BMI increased from the 21st percentile to the 80th percentile initially, and increased when BMI was in >80th percentile. The same result was shown in peripheral arterial disease. BMI >80th percentile showed a 1.426-fold risk of diabetic kidney disease and a 1.336 -fold risk of carotid atherosclerotic plaque.
conclusionsIn patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, the relationship between different BMIs and vascular complications varies. A U-shaped relationship was observed between BMI and diabetic peripheral neuropathy, as well as BMI and peripheral arterial disease. BMI is positively correlated with diabetic kidney disease and carotid atherosclerotic plaque; however, it is not correlated with diabetic retinopathy.
