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

Euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (euDKA) related to sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2-I), despite being reported as consistent, though infrequent, adverse effect in all trials on SGLT2-I in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), still remains poorly known in the real world. On the other hand, the use of this new class of antihyperglycemic agents is expected to increase based on the recent solid evidence of remarkable cardiorenal protection. Therefore, improving awareness on risk factors, diagnosis, and treatment of euDKA is essential to allow correct implementation of SGLT2-I in clinical practice. We here report a T2D patient admitted to the emergency department and then transferred to the nephrology-dialysis unit because of severe euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (euDKA) related to sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2-I). In our patient, a concurrent acute kidney injury at presentation, initially attributed to excessive use of nonsteroid anti-inflammatory agents, and the absence of severe hyperglycemia led to delayed diagnosis and proper therapy. The detailed description of decision-making process for diagnosis and therapy, and the analysis of precipitating factors as well, discloses the helpful contribution of nephrologist to optimize prevention and management of euDKA.
