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

purposeThis expert consensus provides a standardized methodology for interpreting continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data to optimize diabetes management. It aims to help healthcare professionals recognize glycemic patterns and apply targeted interventions based on real-time glucose metrics.

methodsA systematic literature review informed expert panel discussions. Specialists from Latin America assessed CGM interpretation challenges, reviewed key metrics, and reached consensus through an anonymous voting process. The recommendations align with international guidelines while addressing regional limitations in technology access and healthcare infrastructure.

resultsReliable CGM data interpretation requires at least 70% sensor use over 14 days. The Ambulatory Glucose Profile (AGP) report serves as the primary tool, offering essential metrics such as time in range (TIR), time below range (TBR), time above range (TAR), coefficient of variation (CV), and glucose management indicator (GMI). Identifying hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia, and glucose variability allows for personalized treatment adjustments. The panel adopted international glycemic targets, adapting them to Latin American settings. The time in tight range (TITR) was considered but not included due to limited supporting evidence and regional barriers to advanced CGM technology.

conclusionsStandardized CGM interpretation improves glycemic control and treatment decisions. These recommendations provide a structured approach to diabetes care, aiming to enhance clinical outcomes and address healthcare disparities in Latin America.
