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

In recent years, continuous intraperitoneal insulin infusion (CIPII) has become a valid therapeutic option to achieve good glycemic control for patients with unstable type 1 diabetes and subcutaneous insulin resistance, mainly due to the absorption of insulin through the portal venous system. This route improves hepatic uptake and reduces peripheral plasma insulin levels, also optimizing glucagon secretion and hepatic glucose production. CIPII can lead to better blood glucose control and more predictable insulin profiles, especially after meals, compared to subcutaneous injections. Therefore, some studies suggest that CIPII may reduce the risk of hypoglycemia compared to subcutaneous insulin as well as improving patient satisfaction. Actually, among CIPII delivery systems, DiaPort particularly stands out for its low side effects, proven clinical efficacy, and potential for integration into closed-loop systems.
