Performance of a Non-Invasive System for Monitoring Blood Glucose Levels Based on Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Technology (
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 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 need for frequent blood glucose (BG) monitoring and the inconveniences associated with self-monitoring of BG (SMBG) have driven the development of non-invasive approaches.
methodsThis prospective study aimed to investigate the accuracy of glucose level calculation using the near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) technology
resultsOverall, 105 subjects (mean age 53.8 ± 13.8 years, 50.5% female) participated, resulting in 1914 paired glucose measurements between 49 and 331 mg/dL. Total mean absolute relative difference (MARD) was 20.3%, MARD for values >100 mg/dL was 18.3%, and mean absolute deviation (MAD) for values <100 mg/dL was 24.9%. A total of 97.3% of measurements fell within A+B Parkes zones, and 58.8%, 76.9%, and 88.1% within +-20%, +-30%, or +-40% error, respectively. On completion, 62 participants (59%) fulfilled the one-week prospective sub-study. In this subgroup, the total MARD was reduced between day 1 and day 8 from 22.8 to 18.3% (
