Characteristics of type 1 diabetes in Northwest China: A multicenter hospital-based study.
Article in Journal of diabetes investigation, 2026. 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
objectiveTo comprehensively analyze the characteristics of type 1 diabetes and compare the differences between childhood-onset and adult-onset groups.
methodsHospital records of patients with type 1 diabetes of all ages were collected from 18 hospitals across 14 prefectures in Northwest China between January 2016 and October 2023. Data included demographic characteristics, manifestation at onset, physical examination, laboratory tests, and management. Based on diagnosis status, participants were classified into newly diagnosed and previously diagnosed groups. Additionally, according to the age at onset, participants were further divided into childhood-onset and adult-onset groups.
resultsAmong the 1,513 individuals with type 1 diabetes, the newly diagnosed group showed a younger median age of onset, lower mean body mass index, and better β-cell function compared with the previously diagnosed group. Diabetic ketoacidosis at diagnosis was common, and the prevalence of chronic complications increased with disease duration. Most patients in both groups used multiple daily injections. Additionally, patients with childhood-onset type 1 diabetes were more likely to have diabetic ketoacidosis at diagnosis and had higher HbA1c levels at disease onset, lower BMI levels, and lower prevalence of complications compared with those with adult-onset diabetes.
conclusionThis multicenter, hospital-based study provided an overview of the characteristics of patients with type 1 diabetes. These findings may contribute to a better understanding of type 1 diabetes and underscore the importance of long-term diabetic education and management.
