Effectiveness and safety of insulin glargine 300 U/mL in insulin-naïve patients with type 2 diabetes after failure of oral therapy in a real-world setting.
Article in Diabetes, obesity & metabolism, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
aimTo evaluate the effectiveness and safety of initiating basal insulin-supported oral therapy (BOT) with insulin glargine 300 U/mL (Gla-300) in patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs). MATERIALS AND
methodsThis non-interventional, multi-centre, prospective 52-week study, conducted in Germany and Switzerland, documented patients with type 2 diabetes with an HbA1c of between 7.5% and 10.0%, currently treated with OADs, after the physician had decided to start a BOT regimen with Gla-300. The primary endpoint was the rate of achievement of the individualized predefined HbA1c target.
resultsOf 1748 patients included, 1153 comprised the full analysis set, of whom 721 completed documentation of 12 months of Gla-300 treatment. Twelve months after starting Gla-300, 49.9% achieved their individualized HbA1c target, and 61.1% achieved either their HbA1c target or a fasting plasma glucose (FPG) of ≤110 mg/dL. Mean HbA1c decreased by -1.22% ± 1.05% to 7.28% ± 0.92% and mean FPG by -51.5 (±48.63) mg/dl to 132.9 ± 33.0 mg/dL. Median duration of HbA1c target achievement was 341 days and probability to remain on target after 6 months was 81%. Hypoglycaemia incidence and rates remained low after 12 months of Gla-300 treatment; no severe or severe nocturnal hypoglycaemia was observed. Body weight remained unchanged.
conclusionsStarting a BOT regimen with Gla-300 allowed about 60% of 721 German and Swiss patients with inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes to achieve glycaemic control within 12 months in daily clinical practice. Glycaemic control was achieved without weight gain or increased risk of nocturnal or severe hypoglycaemia.
