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

objectiveEvaluate the ability of a newly developed diabetes risk score, the Diabetes Risk Index (DRI), to predict incident type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) in a large adult population.

methodsThe DRI was developed by combining the Lipoprotein Insulin Resistance Index (LP-IR), calculated from 6 lipoprotein subspecies and size parameters, and the branched chain amino acids, valine and leucine, all of which have been shown previously to be associated with future T2D. DRI scores were calculated in a total of 6134 nondiabetic men and women in the Prevention of Renal and Vascular End-Stage Disease (PREVEND) Study. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to evaluate the association of DRI scores with incident T2D.

resultsDuring a median follow-up of 8.5 years, 306 new T2D cases were ascertained. In analyses adjusted for age and sex, there was a significant association between DRI scores and incident T2D with the hazard ratio (HR) for the highest versus lowest quartile being 12.07 (95% confidence interval: 6.97-20.89,

conclusionsHigher DRI scores are associated with an increased risk of T2D. The association is independent of clinical risk factors for T2D including HOMA-IR, BMI and conventional lipids.
