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

Sodium-glucose transport protein 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are a class of antidiabetic medications that have tremendous benefits in diabetic patients through reducing renal tubular glucose reabsorption, therefore inducing a rapid increase in urinary glucose excretion, thus reducing the overall serum blood glucose. However, the medication's use has commonly been associated with emerging complications such as euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (eDKA), a rare and life-threatening metabolic disturbance. Other complications that have been associated with this class of medications are recurrent genital abscesses and renal tubular acidosis, which have both been less reported and explored. Below, we detail the case of a woman who was on empagliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor, for only two months and developed life-threatening eDKA, recurrent genital abscesses, and proximal renal tubular acidosis all within the two months of initiation of the medication.
