A Case Report: Hypoglycaemic Unawareness Associated With Insulinoma.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Hypoglycaemic unawareness (HU) is more frequently described in relation to diabetics in the literature. We have noted that there is also an increasing reporting of HU in insulinoma cases. We report a hospital presentation for an incidental finding of hypoglycaemic unawareness in a gentleman in his fifties who was eventually diagnosed with insulinoma following biochemical studies, radiologic evaluation and histologic evaluation of an excised lesion between the pancreas and the spleen. We have reviewed existing literature evidence regarding the possible aetiologies and management options for this occurrence. More research studies to identify the epidemiology of this association and the determination of a protocol for increased detection of patients with insulinoma who display HU will need to be done.
