Analysis of blood glucose measurements using capillary and arterial blood samples in intensive care patients.
Trial report in Intensive care medicine, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01176279 (Randomised Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Obtention of Blood Samples Through an Arterial Catheter to Monitor Glycose Levels), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
objectiveTo analyse agreement between two methods for blood glucose measurement in intensive care patients: capillary blood using a reagent strip and glucometer with arterial blood using a blood gas analyser. DESIGN AND
settingProspective, single-centre, observational study in a 12-bed tertiary referral intensive care unit. MEASUREMENTS: Blood glucose levels were measured in consecutive patients using simultaneous measurements of capillary blood samples using glucometry and from a multi-electrode arterial blood gas analyser. An a priori subgroup of patients with tissue hypoperfusion was identified (defined as systolic blood pressure <90 mmHg or vasopressor dependency). A total of 493 paired measurements were obtained; 75 of these were from patients with systemic hypoperfusion.
resultsOverall, the mean difference (bias) was 0.12 mmol/l (2.15 mg/dl) and precision 0.77 mmol/l (13.8 mg/dl); 95% limits of agreement were -0.14 and 1.66 mmol/l (-2.5 and 29.8 mg/dl). In patients with systemic hypoperfusion the bias was 0.24 mmol/l (4.0 mg/dl) and precision 0.9 mmol/l (16.2 mg/dl); 95% limits of agreement -2.05 and 1.58 mmol/l (36.8 and 28.4 mg/dl).
conclusionsIn a general population of intensive care patients, there is statistical agreement between blood glucose measured from capillary blood glucometry and arterial blood gas analysis. However, in patients with systemic hypoperfusion, the accuracy of agreement between these two measurement techniques may be such that that biochemical hypoglycaemia (<2.5 mmol/l, 44.9 mg/dl) may go undetected if used interchangeably.
