Work productivity, associated risk factors and costs on presenteeism and absenteeism in Chinese patients with young-onset type-2 diabetes in Hong Kong.
Article in Diabetes, obesity & metabolism, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04049149 (Precision Medicine to Redefine Insulin Secretion and Monogenic Diabetes), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

Abstract
aimsThose with young-onset type-2 diabetes (YOD), diagnosed before age of 40 years, experience heightened risk of complications. The economic burden extends beyond medical costs, impacting work productivity. MATERIALS AND
methodsChinese patients with YOD were recruited between June 2023 and April 2024 in the Precision Medicine to redefine Insulin Secretion and Monogenic diabetes Trial in Hong Kong (NCT04049149). Presenteeism and absenteeism were measured using the World Health Organization Health and Performance Questionnaire.
resultsOf the 639 invited participants, 603 (94%) completed the questionnaire, with 444 employed participants with type-2 diabetes (40.1% female, 80.4% 40-50 years, 32.9% 5-10 years with diabetes, 53.3% hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) <7.0%, 75.2% low-density lipoprotein cholesterol <2.6 mmol/L, 42.3% body mass index ≥25 < 30 kg/m
conclusionsThis study is the first to quantify productivity costs in Chinese patients with YOD, highlighting the need for work place policies, intensive treatment and management strategies to enhance support for individuals with YOD.
