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

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic affected the management and follow-up of several chronic ailments, including pediatric type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Restricted access to healthcare and fear of contracting the virus during medical facility visits resulted in poor compliance, irregular follow-up visits, treatment, and delayed diagnosis of complications in pediatric diabetes such as diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). As such, the incidence of complicated DKA in resource-limited settings is high due to delayed presentation, poor compliance with therapy, and associated comorbidities such as malnutrition and sepsis. The pandemic had only added to the woes. The increased surge in DKA, in the face of limited resources, prompted clinicians to find alternative solutions to manage these children effectively. In this narrative review, we discuss the key challenges faced globally while caring for children with T1DM and DKA during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the lessons learned thereof.
