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

Diabetes is the most prevalent long-term condition, occurring in approximately 6.5% of the UK population. However, an average of 18% of all acute hospital beds are occupied by someone with diabetes. Having diabetes in hospital is associated with increased harm - however that may be defined. Over the last few years the groups such as the Joint British Diabetes Societies for Inpatient Care have produced guidelines to help medical and nursing staff manage inpatients with diabetes. These guidelines have been rapidly adopted across the UK. The National Diabetes Inpatient Audit has shown that over the last few years the care for people with diabetes has slowly improved, but there remain challenges in terms of providing appropriate staffing and education. Patient safety is paramount, and thus there remains a lot to do to ensure this vulnerable group of people are not at increased risk of harm.
