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

Introduction: Although there were initial concerns that the public health response to the COVID-19 pandemic would adversely affect glycemic control in people with type 1 diabetes, several early continuous glucose monitor (CGM) studies reported an unexpected slight improvement in glucose metrics. Early emerging adulthood (roughly spanning the ages of 18-24 years) is often a vulnerable time in the life of a person with type 1 diabetes. Here, we set out to determine how the care and glucose management of emerging adults with type 1 diabetes changed over a period of approximately 2 years from the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: This was a retrospective study of a tertiary referral, multidisciplinary young adult diabetes clinic, spanning before and after the 777-day state of emergency in the City of Toronto. Results: Of 130 emerging adults with type 1 diabetes (80 male, 50 female; mean age 21.0 ± 2.1 years), baseline pre-pandemic HbA Conclusion: Among emerging adults with type 1 diabetes attending a multidisciplinary clinic in a high-income country, glycated hemoglobin levels are on average 0.4% (4.1 mmol/mol) lower than they were before the pandemic. This reduction in HbA
