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

backgroundThe 1-h plasma glucose (1-h PG) during oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) may enhance early dysglycemia detection compared with conventional markers. Distinct glucose curve morphologies correlate with glycemic profiles, insulin sensitivity, and β-cell function. We aimed to compare 1-h PG diagnostic performance with conventional methods and explored glucose curve morphology prevalence in a Brazilian population.

methodsThis retrospective cross-sectional study analyzed 1,797 OGTT records from a Brazilian laboratory (2021-2024). Glycemic profiles were classified using 1-h PG, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-h PG, and HbA1c according to American Diabetes Association, Brazilian Diabetes Society and International Diabetes Federation criteria. Cohen's κ assessed inter-method agreement, McNemar's chi-square tests compared high glycemic risk detection and χ

resultsParticipants were predominantly female (68.9%; mean age 49.6 ± 15.0 years). The 1-h PG identified 27.8% more intermediate hyperglycemia (IH)/type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) cases than FPG, 16.8% more than 2-h PG, and 26.7% more than HbA1c. The 1-h PG identified more individuals at high glycemic risk than FPG (χ

conclusionsThe 1-h PG thresholds ≥ 8.6 mmol/L (155 mg/dL) for IH and ≥ 11.6 mmol/L (209 mg/dL) for T2DM identified more dysglycemia cases than conventional methods, supporting early detection utility. Monophasic curve morphology was associated with impaired glycemic profiles, highlighting prognostic relevance.
