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

AIMS/

introductionGlucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) might be less effective in patients with severe hyperglycemia, because hyperglycemia downregulated the GLP-1 receptor in an animal study. To examine this hypothesis clinically, we compared the glucose-lowering effects of GLP-1 receptor agonist liraglutide with and without prior glycemic control. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn an open-label, parallel trial, participants with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes were recruited and randomized to receive once-daily insulin therapy, degludec (Insulin-GLP-1 RA relay group, mean 16.8 ± 11.4 IU/day), for 12 weeks and then liraglutide for 12 weeks or subcutaneous injections of GLP-1 RA, liraglutide (GLP-1 RA first group, 0.9 mg), for 24 weeks. The primary efficacy end-points consisted of changes in the levels of fasting plasma glucose and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c).

resultsThe median fasting plasma glucose and HbA1c before the study were 210.0 mg/dL and 9.8%, respectively. The levels of fasting plasma glucose and HbA1c significantly decreased in the Insulin-GLP-1 RA relay group (P < 0.001) and GLP-1 RA first group (P < 0.001) by week 24, although no intergroup differences were observed. The reduction of HbA1c in the Insulin-GLP-1 RA relay group tended to be larger than that in the GLP-1 RA first group in the lowest CPR (C-peptide immunoreactivity) quartile (P = 0.072). The adverse events consisted of gastrointestinal problems, followed by hypoglycemia.

conclusionsThe GLP-1 receptor agonist is overall effective without prior glycemic control with insulin in participants with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes. However, in participants with insulinopenic type 2 diabetes, prior glycemic control with insulin might overcome glucose toxicity-induced GLP-1 resistance.
