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

A 69-year-old man with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes presented to an outside hospital with altered mental status. He progressed from being argumentative to encephalopathic and agitated by the evening with urinary frequency, urinary urgency, nausea, and vomiting. His vital signs were normal, and he had no focal neurological deficits on presentation. He was generally encephalopathic, only groaning with no ability to follow commands. He was found to have diabetic ketoacidosis on initial labs. A left parietal hypodensity on CT Head was found, and he was positive for Sars-COV-2.
