Comparable performance of 1,5-anhydroglucitol and continuous glucose monitoring in detecting subclinical atherosclerosis in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.
Article in Cardiovascular diabetology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundThe comparison between conventional glycemic markers and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in relation to adverse outcomes in the elderly with type 2 diabetes remains unclear. We aimed to assess associations of 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG) and CGM metrics with carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) as a surrogate of cardiovascular disease.
methodsThe study included 2509 adults aged ≥ 60 years with type 2 diabetes. CIMT was measured by high-resolution ultrasonography, with abnormal CIMT defined as a mean thickness of ≥ 1.0 mm. Time in range (TIR), mean sensor glucose (MSG), time above range (TAR, > 10.0 mmol/L), standard deviation (SD), and coefficient of variation (CV) were calculated from CGM data.
resultsThe median serum 1,5-AG was 3.9 (2.0, 8.0) μg/mL, and the prevalence of abnormal CIMT was 44.2% (n = 1,109). The prevalence of abnormal CIMT decreased across ascending 1,5-AG categories (P for trend < 0.01). In the fully adjusted model, each 1-standard deviation decrease in 1,5-AG conferred 10% higher odds of abnormal CIMT. Compared with 1,5-AG ≥ 10.0 μg/mL, 1,5-AG < 6.0 μg/mL was associated with an odds ratio of 1.25 (95% CI 1.00-1.55) for abnormal CIMT. Among CGM metrics, TIR, MSG, and TAR
conclusionsIn older adults with type 2 diabetes, 1,5-AG demonstrated a performance comparable to CGM for detecting abnormal CIMT, supporting its potential as a clinical biomarker for identifying subclinical atherosclerosis.
