Gender Disparities in the Care of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: Myth or Reality?
Article in Indian journal of endocrinology and metabolism. 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
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a lifelong condition requiring intensive management; however, gender disparities persist in its care, particularly in conservative and resource-limited settings. This manuscript explores the impact of gender bias on the treatment and well-being of female patients with T1DM through three real-life case studies. The first case highlights the neglect of an eight-year-old girl with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), whose delayed treatment was influenced by gender-based devaluation. The second case emphasizes the emotional burden faced by a 16-year-old girl whose exemplary glycaemic control was overshadowed by concerns about marriageability. The third case illustrates the reproductive pressures imposed on a 32-year-old woman with T1DM, whose recurrent miscarriages were met with blame rather than medical support. These cases reveal systemic gender disparities in healthcare access, emotional support and societal attitudes toward women with T1DM. Addressing these challenges requires community education, integrated family counselling and multidisciplinary pre-conception care.
