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

The long-term body mass index (BMI) threshold to prevent mortality among aging individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains unclear. We quantify BMI exposure using two metrics: the percentage of time BMI above target range (TAR) and the percentage of time BMI within target range (TTR). In a cohort of 3,708 adults aged ≥40 years with T2DM and at least 5 BMI measurements across 4 years, 1,020 deaths occurred during a median 5-year follow-up. Sustained BMI ≥27 kg/m
