Severe transient neonatal hyperinsulinism: First Peruvian case series.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 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
Congenital hyperinsulinism is characterized by dysregulated insulin secretion and is the most common and severe cause of persistent hypoglycemia in pediatrics. Brain damage rates can be as high as 50% due to inadequate treatment. Transient congenital hyperinsulinism is more frequent than permanent congenital hyperinsulinism. Acquired hyperinsulinism due to perinatal stress is often transient, too. Diazoxide is the first-line therapy. However, in Peru, reports about pediatric patients with hyperinsulinism treated with diazoxide are scarce. Our article describes the first Peruvian case series of severe transient neonatal hyperinsulinism treated with diazoxide, with good response and manageable adverse effects. Diazoxide should be included in the Single National Pharmaceutical Request Form for Essential Medicines of Peru to expedite the use of a medication as essential as this one.
