A National Physician Survey Examining Switching From Sulfonylureas or Insulin to Newer Diabetes Medications.
Article in Clinical diabetes : a publication of the American Diabetes Association, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study was a national survey of U.S. physicians in general medicine, geriatrics, or endocrinology who were asked what medication change they would make for adults with type 2 diabetes taking sulfonylureas or insulin with an A1C below their individualized goal. Responding physicians switched the hypoglycemia-causing medication a median of 4 times (interquartile range 1-9) among 27 opportunities and selected dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors most often when switching. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors were selected less frequently, including when indicated for cardiovascular and renal comorbidities, but significantly more often among physicians caring for a greater proportion of patients with private health insurance. Overcoming barriers to switching hypoglycemia-causing medications may help to reduce rates of hypoglycemia while targeting cardiovascular and renal comorbidities.
