Self-monitoring of blood glucose: a prerequisite for diabetes management in outcome trials.
Article in Journal of diabetes science and technology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Evidence for the value of self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) with regard to the achievement of treatment targets, detection of postprandial glucose excursions, and minimization of glycemic variability is increasing. In large clinical trials, SMBG is a key component for the optimization of diabetes treatment in insulin-treated diabetes. It also plays an essential role in outcome studies. However, details of SMBG use in both the methods and results sections of clinical articles are frequently scarce. Also, a discussion of the SMBG data and its impact on insulin therapy is valuable. In the recently completed Outcome Reduction with an Initial Glargine INtervention (ORIGIN) trial, SMBG was described in detail and insulin titration was largely driven by SMBG. Both aspects largely contributed to the fact that near-normal control was achieved over a long-term period.
