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

The development of accurate and easy-to-use continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) improved diabetes treatment by providing additional temporal information on glycemia and glucose trends to patient and physician. Although CGM enables users to lower their average glucose level without an increased incidence of hypoglycemia, this comes at the price of additional patient effort. Automation of insulin administration, also known as closed-loop (CL) or artificial pancreas treatment, has the promise to reduce patient effort and improve glycemic control. CGM data serve as the conditional input for insulin automation devices. The first commercial product for partial automation of insulin administration used insulin delivery shutoff at a predefined glucose level. These systems showed a reduction in hypoglycemia. Insulin-only CL devices show increased time spent in euglycemia and a reduction of hypo- and hyperglycemia. Improved glycemic control, coinciding with a minor decrease in hemoglobin A1c level, was confirmed in recent long-term home studies investigating these devices, paving the way for pivotal studies for commercialization of the artificial pancreas. Although the first results from dual-hormone CL systems are promising, because of increased cost of consumables of these systems, long-term head-to-head studies will have to prove superiority over insulin-only approaches. Now CL glucose control for daily use might finally become reality. Improved continuous glucose sensing technology, miniaturization of electrical devices, and development of algorithms were key in making this possible. Clinical adoption challenges, including device usability and reimbursement, need to be addressed. Time will tell for which patient groups CL systems will be reimbursed and whether these devices can deliver the promise that they hold.
