Accuracy of Bolus and Basal Rate Delivery of Different Insulin Pump Systems.
Article in Diabetes technology & therapeutics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
backgroundInsulin pumps are used for basal rate and bolus insulin delivery in patients with diabetes. In this in vitro study, accuracy of delivery of different commercial insulin pumps was evaluated. MATERIALS AND
methodsAccuracy of 10 different insulin pump systems (5 durable pumps with different insulin infusion sets and 1 patch pump) was tested with a microgravimetric method. Mean bolus accuracy of 25 successive 1 U boluses and of 12 successive 10 U boluses was assessed, and delivery time for 10 U boluses was measured. Basal rate accuracy at 1.0 U/h was evaluated for 72 h and for individual 1-h windows.
resultsMean bolus delivery was within ±5% of target for both tested bolus sizes, but precision of individual boluses was higher with the larger boluses. Delivery times varied between the different pump models but agreed with the specifications of the respective manufacturers. Regarding basal rate accuracy, the total deviation for 72 h was very small in all pumps; however, larger deviations were observed during the first 12 h. For the patch pump, large variations between individual 1-h windows were observed.
conclusionsIn general, all compared insulin pump systems showed a similar level of accuracy. Differences, especially between durable pumps and the patch pump, were observed when considering each hour of basal rate delivery separately.
