Plant-Based Dietary Patterns Associated With Reduced Risk of All-Cause Mortality in Diabetes Subgroups: A Prospective Cohort Study From the UK Biobank.

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
objectiveTo investigate the association between adherence to a plant-based dietary index (PDI), healthy PDI, and unhealthy PDI with all-cause mortality in people with type 2 diabetes and to assess whether associations varied by diabetes subgroups. RESEARCH DESIGN AND
methodsWe included 4,829 UK Biobank participants with type 2 diabetes and at least two 24-h dietary recalls. We generated overall, healthy, and unhealthy scores. Multivariable Cox regression estimated hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs for all-cause mortality, comparing the highest tertile (T3) with the lowest T1 of adherence to PDI, a healthy PDI, and an unhealthy PDI. Interactions between PDI adherence and diabetes subgroups (HbA1c, waist circumference, age at diagnosis, diabetes duration) were assessed by two-dimensional B-splines and by including product terms into the model.
resultsDuring a mean follow-up of 11.3 years, 679 deaths occurred. Individuals with the highest PDI adherence, compared with those with lowest, were at lower risk of all-cause mortality (T3 vs. T1: HR 0.79 [95% CI 0.63; 0.99]), and a similar direction was observed for those with a healthy PDI (0.82 [0.67; 1.02]) but the 95% CI included the null value. Unhealthy PDI was associated with increased mortality risk (1.24 [1.00; 1.54]). The associations of PDI, healthy PDI, and unhealthy PDI with all-cause mortality risk were more pronounced for those with poorer glycemic control, higher waist circumference, diagnosis earlier in life, and longer diabetes duration.
conclusionsHigher PDI adherence was associated with decreased mortality risk and higher unhealthy PDI adherence with an increased mortality risk. There was an indication for differences in these association depending on diabetes subgroups.
