Autonomic and Somatic Nerve Functions in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients: Electrophysiological Aspects.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
objectivesTo investigate the relationship between neurophysiological sensory and motor nerve function parameters, assessed by nerve conduction studies (NCS) with parasympathetic autonomic function and by heart rate variability (HRV) tests in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). MATERIAL AND
methodsA total of 161 T2DM patients underwent NCS. Cardiac autonomic response was assessed by HRV tests to deep breathing (HRV DB), to Valsalva manoeuvre, and during postural change from lying to standing.
resultsThe amplitude of motor response in the median nerve, tibial nerve, and peroneal nerve was associated with reduced HRV DB (
conclusionThe results indicate that there is a correlation in T2DM patients between the damage of small myelinated and unmyelinated nerve fibres from cardiac autonomic nerves, assessed by HRV tests and damage of large motor and sensory fibres, assessed by NCS. Based on the above results, a combination of NCS and HRV tests should be considered in the neurophysiological approach to diabetic neuropathy.
