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

objectiveTo evaluate the long-term cost-effectiveness of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) versus self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) in Chinese adults with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (T2D) to inform optimal disease management and reimbursement policies.

methodsThe United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study Outcomes Model version 2 was used to simulate 30-year cost and health outcomes for cohorts with baseline HbA

resultsFor baseline HbA

conclusionsCGM represents a cost-effective intervention for Chinese adults with uncontrolled T2D, demonstrating enhanced economic value in populations with elevated baseline HbA
