1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Results of the Normoglycemia in Intensive Care Evaluation and Survival Using Glucose Algorithm Regulation (NICE-SUGAR) trial, intensive insulin therapy (IIT), and use of a continuous glucose sensor in intensive care units (ICU) were analyzed. The NICE-SUGAR trial was unable to determine if optimal intensive insulin therapy decreases mortality. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology has the potential to improve glycemic control with low glucose variability and low incidence of hypoglycemia. Interstitial fluid CGM may not be useful in perioperative and ICU settings. Studies evaluating the accuracy and reliability of CGM devices, based on a whole blood sample in perioperative and ICU settings, are needed. Once a reliable CGM sensor for ICU use is identified, a large, prospective, controlled, multicenter study could determine if optimal IIT with a low or zero incidence of hypoglycemic events improves mortality.
