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
objectivesThe present study aims to compare different types of insulin concerning treatment success and insulin dose requirement in type 2 diabetes patients who were receiving basal-bolus insulin therapy and to evaluate the causes of treatment failure despite high doses of insulin.
methodsIn our retrospective study, 198 type 2 diabetes patients who were receiving basal-bolus insulin therapy included. Patients were divided into three groups according to the insulin types (Group 1: short and long-acting analogue insulin users (n=83), Group 2: short and long-acting human regular insulin users (n=58), Group 3: human regular insulin + long-acting analogue insulin users (57)). Demographic data and daily insulin doses were recorded from the patient follow-up files. These data and the rates of achievement of the target HbA1c levels were also compared between groups. In addition, insulin doses of the patients whose glycemic targets could and could not be achieved were compared.
resultsIn this study, 123 (62.1%) of the 198 patients were female and 65 (47.9 %) were male. The mean age of the three groups was 55.81±8.1, 58.3±8.9, 58.3±8.8, respectively. HbA1C values were 8.72±1.65% in group 1, 9.0±1.98% in group 2 and 9.05±2.24% in group 3. The rates of achievement HbA1c value below 7% were 27.7% in analogue insulin group, 25.9% human regular insulin group and 31.6% in regular + analogue insulin group (p >0.05). There were no significant differences in daily basal and bolus insulin doses, total daily and per kg insulin doses and basal-bolus rates between groups. Higher total daily insulin doses were determined in patients who could not achieve target glycemic values than achieved it in group 1 and 2. Higher basal insulin doses were determined in patients who could not achieve target glycemic values than could achieved it in group 3.
conclusionIn our study, in which we did not find any significant difference in the dose analysis between analogue and regular insulin, the findings showed that high insulin doses might not be sufficient for glycemic control. The underlying causes should be investigated and correctible reasons should be eliminated in these patients.
