Effect of Atmospheric Temperature Variations on Glycemic Patterns of Patients with Type 1 Diabetes: Analysis as a Function of Different Therapeutic Treatments.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
An overview of seasonal variations in glycaemic patterns in children and young adults with type 1 diabetes has been addressed in a previous work, which paved the way for an in-depth study involving not only traditional Multiple Dose Injection (MDI) therapy, but also a comparative analysis with the use of Advanced Hybrid Closed-Loop (AHCL) insulin pumps. The widespread use of Flash Glucose Monitoring (FGM) and Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) systems, as well as dedicated platforms for synchronizing and storing CGM reports, has facilitated an efficient approach to analyzing glycaemic patterns. The effect of environmental parameters on glycemic trends undoubtedly has a clinical relevance, which however can be appropriately managed by knowing the responses in patients treated with different therapeutic approaches. In this sense, it is possible to evaluate how the glycemic trend in diabetic patients, in relation to external temperatures, responds differently to therapies. In this work, the response, in terms of glucose level, in diabetic patients was analyzed, according to the different therapeutic approaches and in relation to variations in external temperature. For the same period of the previous work (one year: Autumn 2022-Summer 2023), seasonal variations in CGM metrics (i.e., Time In Range-TIR, Time Above Range-TAR, Time Below Range-TBR and Coefficient of Variation-CV) were analyzed. The results show a better metabolic control, linked to the effect of the algorithm on the trend of glycaemia. However, the analysis focused on the heatwave of July 2023 highlights the role of extreme temperatures as a stress factor in the insulin pumps performance. A further focus was carried out on the comparison of glycaemic patterns during the school and non-school period for all patients until 21 years old. Results suggest that during the school period, glycaemic patterns, in patients treated with MDI, show a greater onset of hyperglycaemia. From all that has emerged, it appears clear that structured education on diabetes self-management for patients and their families is fundamental and must take into account multiple factors (type of therapy, daily activities, atmospheric temperature) in order to keep their effects under control.
