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

Hyperinsulinism due to focal or diffuse pancreatic lesions causing recurrent episodes of hypoglycemia is rare in mid-childhood. There is no consensus on the gold-standard imaging method to diagnose focal insulin-producing lesions beyond infancy. A 14-year-old boy with a complex medical history and refractory epilepsy, presented with blood glucose (BG) of 52 mg/dL (2.9 mmol/L) (normal reference range: 70-100 mg/dL [3.9-5.6 mmol/L]) and increased seizure frequency. He failed a fast within 4 hours, with BG of 48 mg/dL (2.7 mmol/L) and insulin level of 4.6 µIU/mL (24.6 pmol/L) (diagnostic at the time of hypoglycemia >1.25 μU/mL [8.7 pmol/L]). Conventional imaging studies showed no pancreatic lesion. Fluorine-18-L-dihydroxyphenylalanine positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (
