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

Objective: To investigate the association between early gestational Wrist circumference (WrC) and risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in Indian pregnant women. Materials and Methods: In this prospective case-control study, pregnant women of 18-40 years at 6-14 weeks of gestation, were subjected to anthropometric and biochemical evaluations including wrist circumference, waist and hip circumference, waist: hip ratio, fasting plasma glucose, fasting insulin, lipid profiles, HbA1c. Insulin sensitivity was calculated by HOMA IR, QUICKI and McAuley's index. Patients were followed up to 24-28 weeks of gestation with 75 g-OGTT to diagnose GDM. Results: After initial screening of 232 patients, 173 patients were included in the study. Based on the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at 24-28 weeks of gestation, patients were divided into GDM group ( Conclusion: Wrist circumference in non-dominant hand measured at early gestation could potentially predict the onset of GDM in Asian Indian pregnant women.
