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.

Abstract

introductionImpaired awareness of hypoglycemia, clinically reflected by the inability to timely detect hypoglycemia, affects approximately 25% of the people with type 1 diabetes. Both altered brain lactate handling and increased cerebral blood flow (CBF) during hypoglycemia appear to be involved in the pathogenesis of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia. Here we examine the effect of lactate on CBF during hypoglycemia. RESEARCH DESIGN AND

methodsNine people with type 1 diabetes and normal awareness of hypoglycemia underwent two hyperinsulinemic euglycemic-hypoglycemic (3.0 mmol/L) glucose clamps in a 3T MR system, once with sodium lactate infusion and once with sodium chloride infusion. Global and regional changes in CBF were determined using pseudocontinuous arterial spin labeling.

resultsLactate (3.3±0.6 vs 0.9±0.2 mmol/L during lactate infusion vs placebo infusion, respectively) suppressed the counter-regulatory hormone responses to hypoglycemia. Global CBF increased considerably in response to intravenous lactate infusion but did not further increase during hypoglycemia. Lactate also blunted the hypoglycemia-induced regional redistribution of CBF towards the thalamus.

conclusionsElevated lactate levels enhance global CBF and blunt the thalamic CBF response during hypoglycemia in patients with type 1 diabetes, mimicking observations of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia. These findings suggest that alteration of CBF associated with lactate may play a role in some aspects of the development of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia.
