Nonsevere Diabetic Ketoacidosis and Adrenal Insufficiency: Exploring the Impact of Glucocorticoid Replacement on Metabolic Outcomes and ICU Length of Stay.
Article in Critical care explorations, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThere is a paucity of clinical data on corticosteroid replacement in patients with adrenal insufficiency who present with nonsevere noncomplicated diabetic ketoacidosis. CASE SUMMARY: We analyzed five consecutive admissions for diabetic ketoacidosis of mild/moderate severity due to insulin omission in a 21-year-old man with type 1 diabetes and stable Addison disease. Despite similar presentations, the approach to steroid replacement differed: maintenance/moderate doses of hydrocortisone (< 60 mg/d) or high stress-doses (≥ 120 mg/d). Resolution of diabetic ketoacidosis and ICU and hospital length of stay were prolonged when high-dose versus maintenance/moderate glucocorticoids were provided: 45.5, 47.0, and 63.0 versus 12.0, 24.5, and 31 hours, respectively.
conclusionsAlthough our findings remain hypothesis-generating, our case study raises awareness on the importance of categorizing diabetic ketoacidosis by severity and complication status when deciding on the intensity of steroid replacement in patients with stable Addison disease. Excessive glucocorticoid administration may delay the resolution of nonsevere and otherwise noncomplicated diabetic ketoacidosis and prolong ICU and hospital stays.
