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

purposeThe aim of this study was to evaluate the association between blood glucose within 24 hours after intensive care unit (ICU) admission and prognosis. PATIENTS AND

methodsA retrospective cohort study was conducted using data from a large critical care database. Patients who had a length of ICU stay ≥24 hours and at least two blood glucose records within 24 hours after ICU admission were included and hospital mortality was chosen as the primary outcome. The average, minimum, and maximum blood glucose within 24 hours after ICU admission were a priori selected as exposures and associations between each exposure and outcomes were assessed after adjusted for potential confounders.

resultsA total of 14,237 patients were included finally with an average age of 62.9±17.7 years and a mean SAPS II on admission of 34 (26-44). Among the study population, 20.2% (2872/14,237) had uncomplicated diabetes, and 6.7% (953/14,237) had complicated diabetes. Lowest hospital mortality rate was observed in the stratum with an average blood glucose ranged 110-140 mg/dL, a minimum blood glucose ranged 80-110 mg/dL, and a maximum blood glucose ranged 110-140 mg/dL. After adjusted for confounders including age, sex, disease severity scores and comorbidities, an average blood glucose ranged 110-140 mg/dL, a minimum blood glucose ranged 80-110 mg/dL, and a maximum blood glucose ranged 110-140 mg/dL were associated with the lowest risk of hospital mortality. Consistent results were found among patients without diabetes in the subgroup analyses stratified by diabetes.

conclusionA range of 110-140 mg/dL for average and maximum blood glucose and a range of 80-110 mg/dL for minimum blood glucose within 24 hours after ICU admission predicted better prognosis especially among patients without diabetes.
