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

objectiveUse of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has led to greater detection of hypoglycemia; the clinical significance of this is not fully understood. The Hypoglycaemia-Measurement, Thresholds and Impacts (Hypo-METRICS) study was designed to investigate the rates and duration of sensor-detected hypoglycemia (SDH) and their relationship with person-reported hypoglycemia (PRH) in people living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and insulin-treated type 2 diabetes (T2D) with prior experience of hypoglycemia. RESEARCH DESIGN AND

methodsWe recruited 276 participants with T1D and 321 with T2D who wore a blinded CGM and recorded PRH in the Hypo-METRICS app over 10 weeks. Rates of SDH <70 mg/dL, SDH <54 mg/dL, and PRH were expressed as median episodes per week. Episodes of SDH were matched to episodes of PRH that occurred within 1 h.

resultsMedian [interquartile range] rates of hypoglycemia were significantly higher in T1D versus T2D; for SDH <70 mg/dL (6.5 [3.8-10.4] vs. 2.1 [0.8-4.0]), SDH <54 mg/dL (1.2 [0.4-2.5] vs. 0.2 [0.0-0.5]), and PRH (3.9 [2.4-5.9] vs. 1.1 [0.5-2.0]). Overall, 65% of SDH <70 mg/dL was not associated with PRH, and 43% of PRH had no associated SDH. The median proportion of SDH associated with PRH in T1D was higher for SDH <70 mg/dL (40% vs. 22%) and SDH <54 mg/dL (47% vs. 25%) than in T2D.

conclusionsThe novel findings are that at least half of CGM hypoglycemia is asymptomatic, even below 54 mg/dL, and many reported symptomatic hypoglycemia episodes happen above 70 mg/dL. In the clinical and research setting, these episodes cannot be used interchangeably, and both need to be recorded and addressed.
