Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors and Reduced Fibromyalgia Risk in Patients With Diabetes: A Target Trial Emulation Study.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND/
aimEmerging evidence suggests that sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) may offer neuroprotective effects. This study aimed to compare the risk of new-onset fibromyalgia between diabetic patients starting SGLT2i PATIENTS AND
methodsA target trial emulation was conducted using the TriNetX Global Collaborative Network. Adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus starting use of SGLT2i or GLP-1RA were included, excluding those with prior fibromyalgia or psychiatric disorders. Propensity score-matching (1:1) was applied to demographics, comorbidities, laboratory data, and co-medications. The primary outcome was incidence of fibromyalgia. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated.
resultsAfter matching, 297,937 patients per group were analyzed. During follow-up, fibromyalgia occurred in 6,963 (2.3%) of SGLT2i users and 7,855 (2.6%) of GLP-1RA users. SGLT2i use was associated with significantly lower fibromyalgia risk (HR=0.896, 95% CI=0.867-0.925). Findings remained robust in sensitivity analyses, including in 1-year (HR=0.884, 95% CI=0.855-0.914), 3-year (HR=0.880, 95% CI=0.850-0.912), and 5-year (HR=0.889, 95% CI=0.860-0.918) follow-up.
conclusionIn this large real-world cohort, SGLT2i use in diabetic patients was associated with a significantly reduced risk of fibromyalgia compared to GLP-1RA.
