Type 2 diabetes is associated with clinical progression of aortic stenosis: a nationwide retrospective study in Sweden.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have elevated risk for aortic stenosis (AS). The impact of diabetes on prognosis and clinical progression in AS is not well documented. In this study we try to assess if patients with T2DM and AS have faster clinical progression compared to patients without diabetes. By linkage of nationwide Swedish registries, we identified 16,116 T2DM and AS individuals (cases) and compared them with 31,066 matched comparators (AS without diabetes) from general population concerning clinical progression, defined as progression from AS diagnosis to hospitalization for heart failure, aortic valve replacement, mortality, and composite outcome of these endpoints. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to compare outcomes between cases and comparators and Cox proportional hazards analyses to account for confounders. AS individuals (total 47,182, 16,116 cases and 31,066 comparators) had mean age 71 years. The cases were younger, men predominated (58% versus 53%) and had more comorbidities. During follow-up, cases had faster clinical progression- 11% higher hazard for valve replacement (95% CI 1.04-1.18), 14% higher hazard for heart failure hospitalization (95% CI 1.03-1.26) and 4% higher hazard for composite outcome (95% CI 1.01-1.08), but with no mortality excess (HR1.00, 95%CI 0.97-1.05). Preexisting T2DM seems to be linked to moderately more rapid clinical progression in AS.
