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

objectiveRecognize a rare endocrinological side effect of a drug, budesonide, which surfaced as a result of a major procedure.

methodsWe describe a patient who presented with hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state (HHS) likely as a result of the bypass of first-pass metabolism due to budesonide treatment after a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) procedure.

resultsA 62-year-old female with history of combined variable immunodeficiency complicated by colitis (managed by 9 mg budesonide by mouth daily) and refractory ascites secondary to non-cirrhotic portal hypertension (status post-TIPS 3 weeks prior) presented to the hospital with HHS. Her initial insulin requirements were high but improved after discontinuation of budesonide. She was able to be transitioned to a sliding scale and discharged on metformin. When taken orally, budesonide is subject to high first-pass metabolism resulting in minimal systemic effects. Development of HHS and dramatic insulin requirements within 3 weeks of TIPS with drastic improvement following the discontinuation of budesonide leads us to postulate that this was bypassed, leading to steroid-induced diabetes.

conclusionThe case beckons us to be mindful of procedures that alter drug metabolism and make necessary adjustments to prevent complications.
