Impact of continuous glucose monitoring on emergency department visits and all-cause hospitalization rates among Medicaid beneficiaries with type 2 diabetes treated with multiple daily insulin or basal insulin therapy.
Article in Journal of managed care & specialty pharmacy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundThe increasing prevalence of diabetes in the United States continues to drive a steady rise in health care resource utilization, especially emergency department visits and all-cause hospitalizations, and the associated costs.
objectiveTo investigate the impact of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) on emergency department visits and all-cause hospitalizations among Medicaid beneficiaries with type 2 diabetes (T2D) treated with multiple daily insulin injections (MDIs) or basal insulin therapy (BIT) in a real-world setting.
methodsIn this retrospective, 12-month analysis, we used the Inovalon Insights claims dataset to evaluate the effects of CGM acquisition on emergency department visits and all-cause hospitalizations in the Managed Medicaid population. The analysis included 44,941 beneficiaries with T2D who were treated with MDIs (n = 35,367) or BIT (n = 9,574). Primary outcomes were changes in the number of emergency department visits and all-cause hospitalizations following 6 months after acquisition of CGM (post-index period) compared with 6 month prior to CGM acquisition (pre-index period). The first claim for CGM was the index date. Inclusion criteria were as follows: aged younger than 65 years, diagnosis of T2D, claims for short- or rapid-acting insulin (MDI group) or basal insulin (not rapid-acting) (BIT group), acquisition of a CGM device between January 1, 2017, and September 30, 2022, and continuous enrollment in their health plan throughout the pre-index and post-index periods.
resultsIn the MDI group, all-cause inpatient hospitalization rates decreased from 3.25 to 2.29 events/patient-year (hazard ratio = 0.12; 95% CI = 0.11-0.13;
conclusionsAcquisition of CGM is associated with significant reductions in emergency department visits and all-cause hospitalizations among people with T2D treated with MDIs or BIT.
