Diabetic Ketoacidosis in an Euglycemic Patient.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Diabetes is a common disease, and the number of patients is increasing every year. We report a case of a 34-year-old man with a history of diabetes mellitus (diagnosed at eight years old) and was on treatment with tablet glimepride with poor compliance. The patient sought consultation due to vomiting and abdominal pain 12 hours after onset along with burning micturition for four days. His initial blood sugar random (BSR) level was 84 mg/dL. Further lab tests revealed pH: 7.14, bicarbonate: 6.4 mEq/dL, sodium: 141, potasium: 3.8, chloride: 107, PO2: 115, PCO2: 19.4, serum amylase: 51, base excess (BE): -21.3 mmol/L, and positive ketonemia, i.e. 1.39. He was reanimated with parenteral crystalloids and insulin infusion. Eventually with subsequent arterial blood gases (ABGs) and ketones, the patient got better and was eventually declared to be out of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and later discharged. There are very less studies done on euglycemic DKA (eu-DKA); so many physicians fail to diagnose the patients properly and they fall into the invisible cases chunk.
