Safety of iGlarLixi in Japanese People with Type 2 Diabetes: A Post-marketing Database Study.
Observational study in Advances in therapy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionIn this post-marketing study in Japan, the occurrence of hospital-treated hypoglycaemia and severe hyperglycaemia requiring inpatient treatment was evaluated in various cohorts of people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) newly switched to iGlarLixi, a titratable, once-daily, fixed-ratio combination of long-acting insulin glargine 100 U/mL (iGlar-100) and a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA, lixisenatide).
methodsIn this retrospective, observational study, acute-care hospital data from adults with T2D were analysed from the Medical Data Vision database. In Cohort 1, the incidence rate of hospital-treated hypoglycaemia following newly prescribed iGlarLixi versus iGlar-100 was assessed. Cohort 2 was subdivided to evaluate the incidence rate of hospital-treated hypoglycaemia and severe hyperglycaemia requiring inpatient treatment in people switched to iGlarLixi from either a GLP-1 RA ± oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) or OADs alone (Cohort 2A) or from a GLP-1 RA and long-acting insulin ± OADs or long-acting insulin ± OADs (Cohort 2B).
resultsOf the 438 people in the iGlarLixi group and 9295 people in the iGlar-100 group in Cohort 1, who had a median follow-up duration of 52 and 44 days, respectively, there were zero and 0.011 (95% CI 0.006-0.018) events per person-year of hospital-treated hypoglycaemia, respectively. Cohort 2A included 201 people each in the GLP-1 RA ± OADs and OADs alone groups, with a median follow-up duration of 76 and 101 days, respectively, and Cohort 2B included 255 people in the GLP-1 RA and long-acting insulin ± OADs group and 623 people in the long-acting insulin ± OADs group, with a median follow-up duration of 73 and 62 days, respectively; no cases of hospital-treated hypoglycaemia or severe hyperglycaemia requiring inpatient treatment were observed.
conclusionConsistent with clinical trials, this post-marketing database study observed that newly prescribed iGlarLixi has a low risk of serious hypoglycaemia or hyperglycaemia in Japanese people with T2D, irrespective of prior antidiabetic drug treatment.
