Relationship Between C-Peptide Levels, Clinical Features, and Serum Data in a Brazilian Type 1 Diabetes Population with Large Variations in Genomic Ancestry.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic disease characterized by the immune-mediated destruction of the pancreatic beta cells responsible for insulin production. The secreted insulin and C-peptide are equimolar. Due to its longer half-life, C-peptide has become a safer means of assessing the pancreatic reserve. C-peptide levels were evaluated in a population of patients with T1D, focusing on the relationship between this variable and other factors. In addition, the influence of C-peptide on metabolic control and microvascular complications was investigated. This cross-sectional study included 95 patients who had been diagnosed with T1D at least five years earlier. These patients were evaluated using a clinical demographic survey, anthropometric data, laboratory tests, and fundoscopy. This study showed that 29.5% of patients had residual insulin secretion, which correlated directly with their age at diagnosis. No statistically significant differences in metabolic control or microvascular complications were observed between the C-peptide level groups. In addition, our results indicate that ancestry does not influence the persistence of residual C-peptide function in our highly mixed population. It is recommended that future research consider incorporating new variables, such as HLA and pancreatic autoimmunity, as factors that may influence residual β-cell function.
