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

backgroundHyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia is a rare complication of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery. Meals with a high carbohydrate (carb) content and high glycemic index (GI) may provoke these hypoglycemic attacks. The aim of this study is to assess the effects of reducing meal carb content and GI on glycemic responses in patients with post-RYGB hypoglycemia.

methodsFourteen patients with post-RYGB hypoglycemia underwent two meal tests: a mixed meal test (MMT) with a carb content of 30 g and a meal test with the low GI supplement, Glucerna SR 1.5® (Glucerna meal test (GMT)). Plasma glucose and serum insulin levels were measured for a period of 6 h.

resultsPeak glucose levels were reached at T 30 during GMT and at T 60 during MMT, and they were 1.5 ± 0.3 mmol/L lower during GMT than during MMT (7.5 ± 0.4 vs 9.0 ± 0.4 mmol/L, P < 0.005). GMT induced the most rapid rise in plasma insulin: at T 30 plasma, insulin was 30.7 ± 8.5 mU/L higher during GMT than during MMT (P < 0.005). None of the carb-restricted meals induced post-prandial hypoglycemia.

conclusionA 30-g carb-restricted meal may help to prevent post-prandial hypoglycemia in patients with post-RYGB hypoglycemia. The use of a liquid, low GI, supplement offers no additional advantage.
