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

Youth-onset type 2 diabetes (T2D) is increasing, prompting expanded use of pharmacotherapies previously approved only for adults. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, approved for pediatric use in 2023, improve glycemic control by promoting glucosuria, but they carry a known risk of euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in adults. We describe a unique pediatric case of SGLT2 inhibitor-associated euglycemic DKA in a 12-year-old female with T2D. The patient developed DKA with normal glucose shortly after initiating an SGLT2 inhibitor, leading to diagnostic uncertainty and recognition only after exclusion of more common etiologies. She was successfully treated with intravenous insulin and fluids with resolution of DKA and subsequently transitioned to subcutaneous insulin therapy. This case underscores that euglycemic DKA can occur in youth receiving SGLT2 inhibitors, particularly during puberty when physiologic insulin resistance may heighten risk, and that subtle presentations can complicate early recognition if clinicians rely on hyperglycemia alone. As SGLT2 inhibitors enter broader pediatric use, heightened diagnostic vigilance, guided assessment of ketones and acid-base status in symptomatic patients, and patient and family education are essential to ensure safe use in children and adolescents with T2D.
