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

backgroundWe compared characteristics of adults with insulin-treated diabetes using continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) versus multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) during admission with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and identified factors associated with in-hospital mortality among CSII users.

methodsThis retrospective cohort study used the Myocardial Ischaemia National Audit Project, a registry of ACS admissions in England and Wales. Adults aged ≥18 years with confirmed ACS and insulin-treated diabetes were classified as CSII or MDI users. Baseline characteristics were compared. Gradient boosting machine (GBM) modelling and multivariable logistic regression evaluated mortality predictors among CSII users.

resultsThe cohort included 3321 CSII users and 30,593 MDI users. In-hospital mortality was higher among CSII users (11.4% vs. 5.1%; p < 0.001). CSII users had higher rates of cardiogenic shock (4.8% vs. 1.3%), pulmonary oedema (12.1% vs. 8.3%), poor left ventricular systolic function (23.5% vs. 19.7%), and STEMI (32.2% vs. 20.5%). Cardiogenic shock was the strongest predictor of mortality (adjusted OR 10.46, 95% CI 6.95-15.81), followed by poor left ventricular function (OR 4.15, 95% CI 2.69-6.53), basal crepitations (OR 1.94, 95% CI 1.40-2.67) and pulmonary oedema (OR 1.56, 95% CI 1.05-2.28). Higher systolic blood pressure was associated with lower mortality (OR 0.86 per 10 mmHg, 95% CI 0.82-0.90). The GBM model achieved an AUC of 0.85 and a Brier score of 0.088.

conclusionsCSII users admitted with ACS represented a more complex group with haemodynamic compromise and higher unadjusted mortality. Findings predominantly reflect the open-loop CSII era and may not generalise to contemporary hybrid closed-loop systems.
