Trial report in Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06638567 (Postoperative Glucose Control with a Basal Bolus Versus Sliding Scale Insulin Regimen and Its Effect on the Incidence of Surgical Site Infections in People with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.), which is not on this map. Cited by 14 papers, 5 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

backgroundThis study compared intensive and conventional glycemic management strategies in diabetic patients receiving enteral nutrition after gastrectomy.

methodsDiabetic patients (n = 212) who underwent gastrectomy between September 2006 and March 2014 were randomized to intensive glycemic (IG) management with continuous insulin infusion (target glucose 4.4-6.1 mmol/l (80-110 mg/dl)) or conventional glycemic (CG) management with intermittent bolus insulin (target glucose <11.1 mmol/l (<200 mg/dl)). Outcomes included blood glucose concentrations, insulin administration, and postoperative morbidity and mortality.

resultsBlood glucose levels were lower (5.4 ± 1.2 vs. 9.5 ± 1.8 mmol/l, P < 0.001) and mean insulin dose was higher (55 ± 15 vs.32 ± 16 units/day, P < 0.001) in the IG than in the CG group. Rates of severe hypoglycemia (7.5 vs. 0.9%, P = 0.035) and achievement of target blood glucose (86.3 vs. 72.6%, P = 0.023) were higher, while severe hyperglycemia rate was lower (1.9 vs. 11.3%, P = 0.010), in the IG group. Surgical site infection rate was lower in the IG group (4.7 vs. 13.2%, P < 0.030). Rates of other infective complications, bleeding, delayed gastric emptying, obstruction, hepatic dysfunction, renal dysfunction, and circulatory insufficiency were similar in the two groups.

conclusionsIntensive glycemic control in diabetic patients receiving enteral nutrition after gastrectomy was associated with a lower surgical site infection rate but a higher hypoglycemia rate.
