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 purpose of the current study was to review the biochemical results of selective arterial calcium stimulation (SACST) with hepatic venous sampling in patients with immune-mediated hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia. A retrospective review was undertaken of four patients with immune-mediated hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia who underwent SACST with hepatic venous sampling from January 1996 to March 2014. Baseline systemic arterial and hepatic venous insulin concentrations (uIU/mL) were compared, and the absolute and relative-fold increase in hepatic venous insulin concentration after calcium stimulation was calculated. Baseline systemic arterial and hepatic venous insulin concentrations were elevated in all vessels sampled (range, 95 to 1704 uIU/mL), and there was no increase in the absolute or relative (1.0- to 1.3-fold) hepatic venous insulin concentration after calcium injection into any vessel. These data suggest that there are distinct biochemical responses to SACST in patients with immune-mediated hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia compared with patients with endogenous, pancreatic-mediated hypoglycemia, such as insulinoma or nesidioblastosis.
