Olfactory dysfunction is a risk factor for the comorbidity of mild cognitive impairment and Type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Article in Zhong nan da xue xue bao. Yi xue ban = Journal of Central South University. Medical sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectivesDiabetes can accelerate cognitive decline and hence affect the prognosis of patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Olfactory assessment can facilitate the early identification of cognitive impairment among T2DM patients. This study aims to evaluate the effects of olfactory function on mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in patients with T2DM.
methodsA total of 472 T2DM patients who were hospitalized in a first-class hospital in Changsha City from June 2018 to June 2019 were enrolled for this study. Olfactory function and cognitive function were assessed by the alcohol sniff test and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scale, respectively. Participants were categorized into a comorbidity of MCI and T2DM group and a T2DM group. General information was collected and some biochemical indices were tested. Difference in the alcohol sniff test score between the 2 groups was assessed by 2-sample
resultsOf the 472 participants, 162 were identified with MCI, making the comorbidity rate at 34.3%. Values of isopropyl alcohol sniff test were significantly different between the 2 groups [(9.15±3.22) cm vs (21.03±4.36) cm,
conclusionsOlfactory dysfunction is an independent risk factor for the comorbidity of MCI and T2DM. Special attention should be paid to those with olfactory dysfunction when carrying out cognitive interventions in T2DM patients.
