Cross-sectional association of irregular dietary habits with glycemic control and body mass index among people with diabetes.
Article in Journal of diabetes investigation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
AIMS/
introductionTo determine the association of irregular dietary habits with HbA1c and body mass index (BMI) in people with diabetes. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe included 4,421 people with diabetes aged 20-74 years (type 1 diabetes (T1D), 19.1%) who answered a questionnaire at mealtime. Adjusted least square means in HbA1c and BMI in patients with irregular dietary habits: "irregular mealtimes (irregular)," "skipping breakfast (SB)," and "late dinner (LD)" were compared to those with "regular dietary habits (regular)." Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to examine the association of irregular dietary habits with HbA1c ≥ 7% and BMI ≥25 kg/m
resultsHbA1c was significantly higher for "irregular" in both sexes and for "LD" in women than those of "regular" in people with T1D. HbA1c was significantly higher for "LD," and BMI was higher for almost all irregular dietary habits than those of "regular" in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Odds ratios (ORs) for HbA1c ≥7% were 3.20 (95% confidence interval (CI), 1.30-7.89) for T1D women with "irregular" and 1.73 (1.20-2.49) and 2.20 (1.14-3.65) for T2D men and women with "LD," respectively. ORs for BMI ≥25 kg/m
conclusionsIrregular mealtimes are associated with poor glycemic control in T1D women and are associated with obesity in T2D men. Furthermore, a late dinner was associated with high HbA1c levels and BMI in people with T2D.
