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
purposeTo assess the postpartum sensitivity and accuracy of serum HbA1c levels, compared to the gold standard of 75-g Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), for diagnosis of dysglycemia in patients with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).
methodsA nationwide retrospective analysis of individuals with a history of GDM and with records of both postpartum 2 h-OGTT and serum HbA1c measured anytime between delivery until 12 months post-delivery. Results were stratified into 3 different intervals: 0-3 months, 3-12 months, and > 12 months after delivery, according to the timing of both OGTT and HbA1c performance.
resultsBetween January 1st, 2015, until December 31st, 2021, a total of 55,119 individuals were screened, and 9,118 were diagnosed with GDM. Overall, 677 of the 9,118 individuals with GDM had laboratory results of both serum HbA1c levels and 2 h 75-gm-OGTT values after delivery. The overall Pearson correlation coefficient between HbA1c and 2 h-OGTT was 0.21 (P < 0.0001). However, when the OGTT results were stratified into 2 h-glucose values ≥ 200 mg/dL, a ROC curve yielded an Area Under the Curve (AUC) of 91.4% [95% CI: 83.9%-98.9%], with HbA1c levels of 5.7% yielding 80.0% sensitivity and 80.8% specificity (95% CI: 44.39-97.48%).
conclusionsIn patients with a recent diagnosis of GDM, serum HbA1c may be used as an auxiliary tool for postpartum diagnosis of dysglycemia.
