Review in Current diabetes reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01923688 (Prevention of Hypoglycemia and Insulin Errors in Barnes-Jewish Hospital Inpatients), which is not on this map. Cited by 4 papers.

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.

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

Hyperglycemia is commonly observed in hospitalized patients with and without previously known diabetes and is associated with adverse outcomes. For this reason, measurement of blood glucose (BG) is recommended for all patients at admission. Measurement of an A1C identifies patients with either newly recognized diabetes or uncontrolled diabetes. Current guidelines advise fasting and premeal BG <140 mg/dl, with maximal random BG <180 mg/dl for the majority of noncritically ill patients. Rational use of basal bolus insulin (BBI) regimens is effective in achieving these glycemic goals, with low risk for hypoglycemia. The safety of BBI relies upon provider knowledge for initiation and adjustment of insulin doses for changes in nutritional status or use of medications affecting glucose metabolism. Smooth transition of care to the outpatient setting is facilitated by providing oral and written instructions regarding timing and dosing of insulin, as well as education in basic skills for home management.
