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

Background: Children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) are frequently hospitalised for severe hypoglycaemia, hyperglycaemia, and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). While several risk factors have been recognised, clinically identifying these children at high risk of acute decompensation remains challenging. Objective: To develop a risk prediction model to accurately estimate the risk of acute healthcare utilisation due to severe hypoglycaemia, hyperglycaemia, and DKA in children and adolescents with T1DM. Materials and Methods: Using a retrospective dataset, baseline demographic and clinical data were collected from patients (<18 years) seen at a regional paediatric diabetes clinic from 1 January 2018 to 1 January 2020. The outcome was the number of emergency department presentations or hospital admissions for severe hypoglycaemia, hyperglycaemia, and DKA across the study period. Variables that were significant in univariate analysis were entered into a multivariable model. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves assessed the model's discrimination and generated cut-offs for risk group stratification (low, medium, and high). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis measured time to acute healthcare utilisation across the risk groups. Results: Our multivariable risk prediction model consisted of five predictors (continuous glucose monitoring device, previous acute healthcare utilisation, missed appointments, and child welfare services involvement and socioeconomic status). The model exhibited good discrimination (area under the ROC = 0.81), accurately stratified children into low-, medium-, and high-risk groups, and demonstrated significant differences between median time to healthcare utilisation. Conclusion: Our model identified patients at an increased risk of acute healthcare utilisation due to severe hypoglycaemia, hyperglycaemia, and DKA.
