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.

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.

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND

objectiveTo avoid insulin-induced hypoglycemia and weight gain, the minimum dose of insulin should be used. In this study, therefore, we examined insulin dose reduction by ipragliflozin add-on therapy in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated with long-acting basal insulin.

methodsIn this multicenter, open-label study, patients received one ipragliflozin 50-mg tablet once daily in combination with basal insulin for 24 weeks. The primary efficacy endpoint was the change and percent change in insulin dose from baseline to Week 24. Secondary efficacy endpoints included changes in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycoalbumin, cholesterol, leptin, adiponectin, C-peptide, glucagon, body weight, and blood pressure, and number of patients achieving withdrawal of insulin at the end of treatment (EOT). Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were evaluated for safety.

resultsIn total, 114 patients were screened, 103 were registered, and 97 completed the study. The mean age was 59 years and 72.8% of patients were male. The mean change in insulin dose from baseline at Week 24 was - 6.6 ± 4.4 units/day (p < 0.001); the mean percent change was - 29.87%. HbA1c, FPG, glycoalbumin, glucagon levels, body weight, and blood pressure significantly decreased from baseline to EOT (p < 0.05). Cholesterol, leptin, and adiponectin were unaffected. One patient was able to stop insulin treatment at Week 16. The incidence of TEAEs was 60.2%. Hypoglycemia (10.7%) and pollakiuria (13.6%) were the most common drug-related TEAEs. Conclusions Once-daily 50-mg ipragliflozin enabled a 30% dose reduction of insulin by Week 24 compared with baseline. No major safety concerns were raised. CLINICAL
