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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to compare achievement of glycemic control on insulin drips before and after the implementation of EndoTool, a glucose management software system used in a community hospital setting.
methodsA retrospective chart review was performed of patients on an insulin drip who were managed before and after implementation of the EndoTool software. Fifty patients were selected for each group. Statistical analyses were run to compare metrics gathered between groups.
resultsPatients in the standard care group were on an insulin drip for an average of 23.9 hours compared to 20.9 hours in the EndoTool group (
conclusionAnalysis of the implementation of EndoTool in the community hospital setting found no statistically significant differences between groups, although rates of hypo- and hyperglycemia showed a trend toward improved safety in the EndoTool group. These results could be attributed to the conservative parameters the hospital set in the initial phase of EndoTool implementation.
