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

This study investigates the association between parity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Japanese women, considering the clinical history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and menopausal status, which are known risk factors for T2DM. Overall, 30,116 Japanese women (6,588 premenopausal and 23,528 postmenopausal) were included in this cross-sectional study. They were divided into two groups according to menopausal status (premenopausal and postmenopausal women), and the association between parity and T2DM was evaluated using a multiple logistic regression model with possible confounders, including a clinical history of GDM. The association between parity and T2DM was not statistically significant in premenopausal women. In contrast, a linear graded association between parity and T2DM was found in postmenopausal women. Furthermore, the association between parity and T2DM in postmenopausal women was attenuated after adjusting for body weight gain after the age of 20 years. A clinical history of GDM was significantly associated with a high risk for T2DM, regardless of adjustment for body weight gain after the age of 20 years in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women. Parity is associated with an increased risk of T2DM in postmenopausal women but not in premenopausal women. Maintaining appropriate body weight would be beneficial in attenuating the risk of T2DM in postmenopausal women. A clinical history of GDM is a risk factor for T2DM in both pre- and postmenopausal women; therefore, women with a clinical history of GDM require continuous medical care to survey for T2DM.
