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
Aims: Patients with pancreatic tumours are at increased risk of diabetes mellitus (DM) and hyperglycaemia and a subsequent higher risk of developing postoperative complications. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) can be used to assess the prevalence of hyperglycaemia in pancreatic surgery patients. Methods: This single-centre observational pilot study (2023-2025) included 15 patients with DM type 2 or new onset DM (HbA1c ≥ 48 mmol/mol (6.5 %)) undergoing pancreatic surgery. Blinded CGM was performed for 2 weeks preoperatively and 2 weeks perioperatively. Primary outcome was time above range (TAR)(glucose > 10.0 mmol/l (180.2 mg/dl)) as a percentage of total CGM wear time. Secondary outcomes were time below and in range, glucose metrics, difference in preoperative HbA1c and patient satisfaction regarding CGM wear. Results: In total, 5 patients had new-onset DM, 6 suboptimal controlled DM (HbA1c ≥ 53 mmol/mol (7.0 %)) and 4 optimal controlled DM (HbA1c < 53 mmol/mol (7.0 %)) at baseline. Median preoperative TAR (>10.0 mmol/L (180.2 mg/dl)) was highest in the suboptimal controlled DM group (59.7 % [35.1-68.6]), compared to 7.9 % [0.9-19.4] in the optimal controlled and 16.7 % [7.7-23.7] in the new-onset DM group. Perioperatively, the optimal controlled DM group had the highest TAR (26.7 % [11.3-49.0]) while the new-onset and suboptimal controlled DM group had TARs of 4.6 % [1.2-9.6] and 16.3 % [11.5-23.4], respectively. Conclusions: Blinded CGM revealed frequent pre- and perioperative hyperglycaemia and high inter-individual variability in TAR among patients with (new-onset) DM undergoing pancreatic surgery. These findings support the need for stricter and more individualized glucose monitoring. This could optimize preoperative glucose management and thereby possibly reduce postoperative complications.
