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

introductionOptimal adjustment of basal insulin to overcome hypoglycemia and glycemic variability (GV) depends on its duration of action and peak-less profile. Owing to the ability of long-acting basal insulin to avoid hypoglycemia, we titrated pre-meal glucose to normal fasting blood glucose, 80-110 mg/dL (4.5-6.1 mmol/L), and post-meal glucose to 80-140 mg/dL (4.5-7.8 mmol/L). The purpose of this study was to evaluate two basal insulin analogues degludec (IDeg) and glargine (IGlar), injected in the morning, for GV using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in type 1 diabetes (T1DM).

methodsIn this crossover study, 20 Japanese patients with T1DM (age 54 ± 16 years, disease duration 16 ± 8 years, BMI 24 ± 4 kg/m

resultsThere were no differences in HbA1c, total insulin dosage, body weight changes, and basal to bolus ratio between the IDeg and IGlar arms. The day-to-day variability in fasting interstitial GV on the CGM curves was significantly less in the IDeg than IGlar treatment period (25.9 ± 22.0 vs. 43.8 ± 30.1 mg/dl, p = 0.04). Other markers of GV, calculated by the EasyGV software, including mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE), J-index, total and nocturnal hypoglycemia were not different between the two treatment periods. The score of "satisfaction with treatment", a subdomain of the DTR-QOL system, was higher in the IDeg period.

conclusionThus, the morning injection of the two long-acting insulin analogues seemed similar with regard to the magnitude of hypoglycemia in T1DM, but treatment with IDeg was associated with lower day-to-day variation in glucose level. These results suggest that IDeg is safe with minimal morning GV in patients with T1DM. CLINICAL
