Accuracy of Blood Glucose Measurement and Blood Glucose Targets.
Review in Journal of diabetes science and technology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundTo summarize new evidence regarding the methodological aspects of blood glucose control in the intensive care unit (ICU).
methodsWe reviewed the literature on blood glucose control in the ICU up to August 2019 through Ovid Medline and Pubmed.
resultsSince the publication of the Leuven studies, the benefits of glycemic control have been recognized. However, the methodology of blood glucose control, notably the blood glucose measurement accuracy and the insulin titration protocol, plays an important but underestimated role. This may partially explain the negative results of the large, pragmatic multicenter trials and made everyone realize that tight glycemic control with less-frequent glucose measurements on less accurate blood glucose meters is neither feasible nor advisable in daily practice. Blood gas analyzers remain the gold standard. New generation point-of-care blood glucose meters may be an alternative when using whole blood of critically ill patients in combination with a clinically validated insulin dosing algorithm.
conclusionWhen implementing blood glucose management in an ICU one needs to take into account the interaction between aimed glycemic target and blood glucose measurement methodology.
