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

Hypoglycaemia (blood glucose concentration below the normal range) has been recognised as a complication of insulin treatment from the very first days of the discovery of insulin, and remains a major concern for people with diabetes, their families and healthcare professionals today. Acute hypoglycaemia stimulates a stress response that acts to restore circulating glucose, but plasma glucose concentrations can still fall too low to sustain normal brain function and cardiac rhythm. There are long-term consequences of recurrent hypoglycaemia, which are still not fully understood. This paper reviews our current understanding of the acute and cumulative consequences of hypoglycaemia in insulin-treated diabetes.
