Rationale and protocol for the Assessment of Impact of Real-time Continuous Glucose Monitoring on people presenting with severe Hypoglycaemia (AIR-CGM) study.
Article in BMC endocrine disorders, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03748433 (Assessment of the Impact of Real-Time Continuous Glucose Monitoring on People Presenting With Severe Hypoglycaemia), which is not on this map. Cited by 2 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.

Abstract
backgroundSevere hypoglycaemia carries a significant risk of morbidity and mortality for people with type 1 diabetes. Economic costs are also high, estimated at approximately £13 million annually in England, UK. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has been shown to reduce hypoglycaemia and associated fear, improve overall glycaemia and quality of life, and is cost-effective. Despite effective pathways in place with high levels of resource utilization, it has been reported there are low levels of follow-up, therapy change and specialist intervention after severe hypoglycaemia. This study is designed to assess the impact of providing real-time CGM to people with type 1 diabetes, who have had a recent episode of severe hypoglycaemia (within 72 h), compared to standard care. METHODS/
designFifty-five participants with type 1 diabetes and a recent episode of severe hypoglycaemia, who are CGM naïve, will be recruited to the study. Participants will be randomised to CGM or standard care. The primary outcome is percentage time spent in hypoglycaemia (< 3.0 mmol/L, 55 mg/dL). Secondary outcomes include other measures of hypoglycaemia, time in euglycaemia, overall glucose status and patient reported qualitative measures. DISCUSSION: This study assesses the impact of providing continuous glucose monitoring at the outset in individuals at highest risk of hypoglycaemia. Changing demand means that novel approaches need to be taken to healthcare provision. This study has the potential to shape future national standards.
