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

backgroundTo evaluate the effect of various, everyday intensive care unit (ICU) practices on glucose levels in critically ill pediatric patients with the use of a continuous glucose monitoring system.

methodsSeventeen sensors were placed in 16 pediatric patients (8 male). All therapeutic and diagnostic interventions were recorded and 15 minutes later, a flash glucose measurement was obtained by swiping the sensor with a reader. Glucose difference was calculated as the glucose value 15 minutes after the intervention minus the mean daily glucose value for each individual patient. Additionally, the consciousness status of the patient (awake or sedated) was recorded.

resultsTwo hundred and five painful skin interventions were recorded. The mean difference of glucose values was higher by 1.84 ± 14.76 mg/dL (95% CI: -0.19 to 3.87 mg/dL,

conclusionsDiagnostic and therapeutic procedures in the ICU, especially when performed in an awake state, exacerbate the stress and lead to a significant rise in glucose levels.
