Impaired erythropoietin response to hypoxia in type 2 diabetes.
Article in Acta diabetologica, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
aimsPatients with type 2 diabetes have a 20% lower total blood volume than age- and weight-matched healthy adults, suggesting a reduced capacity to transport oxygen in this population. Intermittent hypoxia, consisting of alternating short bouts of breathing hypoxic and normoxic air, increases erythropoietin levels, the hormone regulating red blood cell production, in young and older adults. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of a single session of intermittent hypoxia on erythropoietin levels and hemoglobin mass, the absolute mass of hemoglobin contained in red blood cells, in patients with type 2 diabetes.
methodsTen patients with type 2 diabetes were exposed to an intermittent hypoxia protocol consisting of eight 4-min cycles at a targeted oxygen saturation of 80% interspersed with normoxic cycles to resaturation. Erythropoietin and hemoglobin mass responses to intermittent hypoxia in patients with type 2 diabetes were compared to previously published data from an identical intermittent hypoxia protocol performed in age-matched older adults.
resultsIntermittent hypoxia increased erythropoietin levels in older adults but did not induce any change in erythropoietin levels in patients with type 2 diabetes (3.2 ± 2.2 vs. 0.2 ± 2.7 mU/ml, p = 0.01). Hemoglobin mass indexed to body weight was 21% lower in patients with type 2 diabetes than in older adults (8.1 ± 1.7 vs. 10.2 ± 2.1 g/kg, p < 0.01).
conclusionsThese findings suggest an impaired erythropoietin response to decreased oxygen levels in patients with type 2 diabetes, which may contribute to the reduced oxygen transport capacity observed in this population.
