Risk factors for hypoglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus after intensive insulin therapy and blood glucose monitoring strategy.
Article in African health sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: To explore the risk factors for hypoglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) after intensive insulin therapy and the blood glucose monitoring strategy. Methods: A total of 172 T2DM patients diagnosed from March 2019 to March 2021 were randomly divided into training (n=115) and test sets (n=57), and given intensive insulin therapy. After treatment, the training set was divided into hypoglycemia (n=35) and non-hypoglycemia groups (n=80). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed. Then 120 patients were divided into instantaneous scanning glucose test system monitoring (observation) and glucometer monitoring (control) groups. The diagnostic values of the two methods were validated using receiver operator characteristic curves. Results: Course of disease, body mass index, fasting C-peptide and creatinine were independent risk factors for hypoglycemia, while instantaneous scanning glucose test system monitoring and glucometer monitoring were protective factors (P<0.05). The model had high predictive value. The observation group had shorter time of blood glucose reaching the standard, smaller insulin dose, and lower risk of hypoglycemia than those of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: During intensive insulin therapy by multiple subcutaneous injections, the clinical effect of instantaneous scanning glucose test system on T2DM patients is better than that of glucometer.
