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

Euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (euDKA) is a life-threatening metabolic complication typically associated with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). However, its occurrence in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains exceptionally rare. We present a case report detailing the unusual manifestation of euDKA in a patient with T2DM following the initiation of treatment with a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor. The patient, a 67-year-old female with a history of T2DM and well-controlled blood glucose levels, was commenced on an SGLT-2 inhibitor as part of her antidiabetic regimen just two weeks prior. Subsequently, the patient developed euDKA despite maintaining near-normal glycemic levels. This paradoxical presentation challenges the conventional understanding of DKA in T2DM and underscores the need for heightened clinical awareness. EuDKA associated with SGLT-2 inhibitors is an infrequently reported phenomenon, further complicating the clinical landscape. This case contributes to the growing evidence suggesting an association between SGLT-2 inhibitors and the development of euDKA in patients with T2DM. The rarity of this occurrence necessitates a thorough exploration of potential risk factors and underlying mechanisms.
