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

Diabetes mellitus (DM) in cats is commonly managed with insulin injections and glycemic control is assessed with glucose monitoring systems. Automated insulin delivery (AID) systems, which integrate a continuous glucose monitoring system with an insulin pump controlled by a set algorithm, are successful in managing type 1 DM in humans but have not been reported in cats until now. Here, the use of an AID system is described in an 11-year-old cat with DM. After an initial 6 days of treatment with twice daily administration of protamine zinc insulin and insulin glargine, the AID was applied and managed by the cat owner. The system rapidly improved glycemic control and remission of DM was achieved. Throughout the application period, the AID system was well tolerated by the cat. This case suggests that AID systems can be used in diabetic cats and that they might improve glycemic control.
