Insulin (Technique) Induced Hypoglycaemia.
Article in Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The most common side effect of insulin therapy is hypoglycaemia apart from weight gain. It occurs commonly due to insulin overdose, faulty injection site, technique and meal-insulin mismatch. In lean individuals even the needle size can be a contributing factor to hypoglycaemia. Here we report a case who presented with recurrent episodes of hypoglycaemia due to a combination of wrong insulin site, technique as well as needle size. On examination, he was found to have spotted dermopathy on his forearms (insulin injection site) which was consistent with intradermal insulin administration. Recently, insulin infusion through intradermal route has been found to reach the systemic circulation faster than even the conventional subcutaneous injection. This case emphasizes that hypoglycaemias can occur due to less common causes. It warrants a good clinical examination and patient education.
