Methamphetamine-Induced Hypoglycemia: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We present a rare case of a 34-year-old male patient with a history of schizophrenia who was found to be persistently hypoglycemic after a positive toxicology screen for methamphetamine. The patient has had multiple admissions to the hospital for persistent hypoglycemia and was then transferred to our in-patient behavioral health unit (BHU). At this time, his toxicology screen was negative for methamphetamines. During his stay in the BHU, he was compliant with his psychiatric medications and was euglycemic despite having a poor appetite until he was discharged home. This patient was shortly readmitted to the hospital and found to be severely hypoglycemic and methamphetamine positive. Here, we present this rare case of methamphetamine-induced hypoglycemia. We emphasize our work-up, treatment, and our suggested theory of why methamphetamines are the likely cause of hypoglycemia.
