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

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical characteristics of carotid atherosclerotic disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, investigate its risk factors, and develop and validate an easy-to-use nomogram. Methods: 1049 patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes were enrolled and randomly assigned to the training and validation cohorts. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified independent risk factors. A method combining least absolute shrinkage and selection operator with 10-fold cross-validation was used to screen for characteristic variables associated with carotid atherosclerosis. A nomogram was used to visually display the risk prediction model. Nomogram performance was evaluated using the C index, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, and calibration curves. Clinical utility was assessed by decision curve analysis. Results: Age, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and OGTT3H were independent risk factors associated with carotid atherosclerosis in patients with diabetes. Age, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, smoke, HDL-C, and LDL-C were characteristic variables used to develop the nomogram. The area under the curve for the discriminative power of the nomogram was 0.763 for the training cohort and 0.717 for the validation cohort. The calibration curves showed that the predicted probability matched the actual likelihood. The results of the decision curve analysis indicated that the nomograms were clinically useful. Discussion: A new nomogram was developed and validated for assessing the incident risk of carotid atherosclerotic in patients with diabetes; this nomogram may act as a clinical tool to assist clinicians in making treatment recommendations.
