Radiographic appearances of a continuous glucose monitor in a patient with lipodystrophy.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 report the case of a 50-year old woman with a known history of lipodystrophy. A pelvic radiograph was taken for the investigation of right hip pain. The image shown demonstrates an indeterminate artefact projected over the right iliac fossa. A previous CT renal study was reviewed, demonstrating the same device in the subcutaneous tissues of the contralateral left lower quadrant which on close inspection was consistent with a continuous glucose monitoring device. Features of lipodystrophy were also noted on review of the CT imaging. Although many devices such as vagal stimulators and prosthetic valves are easily recognized by radiologists on radiographic images, they may be less familiar with devices such as continuous glucose monitors. The aim of this case report is to familiarize radiologists with the appearances of continuous glucose monitors to allow for effective reporting.
