Real-World Analysis of Rapid-Acting Insulin Analog Use and Its Blood Glucose Lowering Effect in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Results from PASSION Disease Registry in Korea.

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
Purpose: Although rapid-acting insulins (RAIs) are used frequently in Korean clinical settings, evidence on their use is limited. This study explores the pattern and clinical effectiveness of the use of RAIs in Korean patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Patients and Methods: This non-interventional, observational study enrolled patients (aged >18 years) with T2DM who were prescribed RAIs. The pattern of use and effectiveness of RAI analogs were evaluated over 6 months. Results: A total of 299/451 patients were analyzed. Approximately 90% (n/N=270/299) of the patients received insulin glulisine, which significantly reduced their levels of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c: n=270, mean± standard deviation [SD]; -1.16±6.02%, p=0.0017), fasting plasma glucose (n=40; mean±SD: -54.9±90.89 mg/dl, p=0.0005), and post prandial blood glucose (n=35, mean±SD: -89.46± 105.68 mg/dl, p<0.0001) at 6 months, with a corresponding increase in body weight (BW) (n=197, mean±SD:1.45±3.64 kg, p<0.0001). At 6 months, more patients receiving an intensive regimen (basal insulin+≥2 RAI injections/day) had HbA1c <7% than those receiving a non-intensive regimen (basal insulin+1 RAI injection/day) (20.69% vs 7.46%; p=0.0333); the corresponding reduction in HbA1c was also higher in patients receiving the intensive regimen (p<0.0001). About one-fourth patients (n/N=22/95) were switched to the intensive regimen (from 1 to ≥2 RAI injections/day), and only 4.41% (n/N=9/204) of the patients were switched to 1 RAI injection/day. The patients receiving the intensive regimen showed higher levels of HbA1c reductions (mean±SD: -1.27±1.96%) compared with the maintenance group-1 RAI injection/day (mean±SD: -0.72±1.66%) (p=0.0459), without a significant increase in BW and body mass index. Conclusion: The insulin glulisine intensification regimen showed glycemic target achievement and can be considered a therapeutic tool in the management of T2DM patients.
