Understanding cystic-fibrosis-related diabetes: best thought of as insulin deficiency?
Review in Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
The limited available evidence supports the use of insulin treatment in CFRD. This fits with the dominant problem in CFRD being insulin deficiency and progressive beta cell dysfunction, making tablets that stimulate the beta cell unlikely to be a successful strategy. It is possible that patients with IGT or CFRD with moderate hyperglycaemia (e.g. relative preservation of fasting glucose) may initially respond to beta cell secretagogues. A large randomized prospective trial in the USA should answer this point in the next few years.
