Interrelationships of microangiopathy, plasma glucose and other risk factors in 3583 diabetic patients: A multinational study

Open access

Abstract

In a multinational study, fasting plasma glucose values in 3583 diabetic patients, aged 34-56 years, were related to the characteristics of these subjects and to the presence and severity of microangiopathy as ascertained by standardised methods. The patients were from nine different populations and ranged in number from 193 to 686 per population (London, Warsaw, Berlin (FRG), New Delhi, Tokyo, Havana, Oklahoma Indians, Arizona Pima Indians, and a national sample in Switzerland). In the total group, mean fasting plasma glucose was 8.1 mmol/l for those on diet alone, 9.7 mmol/l for those on oral agents, and 12.7 mmol/l for insulin-treated patients, of whom 25% had values exceeding 16.5 mmol/l. Since many variables were measured in each patient, it was possible to take into account many confounding factors in evaluating the relationship of plasma glucose levels to retinopathy and nephropathy.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Hyperglycaemia and hyperinsulinemia are involved in the development of long-term complications in NIDDM.

    “Furthermore,hyperglycaemia as well as hyperinsulinemia is involved in the development of long-term complications inherent in this disease [18, 19].”

    From The effect of moderate exercise on postprandial glucose homeostasis in NIDDM patients (1997) · cites this paper as [19]

    The Plasma Glucose and Microvascular Disease section reports more retinopathy and proteinuria with higher glycaemia, supporting the hyperglycaemia part. The Discussion describes glucose as a possible risk factor and notes that the study was cross-sectional, so it does not establish a causal role in development. The passages on insulin concern treatment status, not hyperinsulinemia; they do not support that part of the claim. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
