First Outpatient Clinical Trial of a Full Closed-Loop Artificial Pancreas System in South America.
Trial report in Journal of diabetes science and technology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04793165 (Is the Artificial Pancreas, Without Carbohydrate Counting, Efficient and Safe for Ambulatory Patients With Type 1 Diabetes), which is not on this map.

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
backgroundThe first two studies of an artificial pancreas (AP) system carried out in Latin America took place in 2016 (phase 1) and 2017 (phase 2). They evaluated a hybrid algorithm from the University of Virginia (UVA) and the automatic regulation of glucose (ARG) algorithm in an inpatient setting using an AP platform developed by the UVA. The ARG algorithm does not require carbohydrate (CHO) counting and does not deliver meal priming insulin boluses. Here, the first outpatient trial of the ARG algorithm using an own AP platform and doubling the duration of previous phases is presented.
methodPhase 3 involved the evaluation of the ARG algorithm in five adult participants (n = 5) during 72 hours of closed-loop (CL) and 72 hours of open-loop (OL) control in an outpatient setting. This trial was performed with an own AP and remote monitoring platform developed from open-source resources, called InsuMate. The meals tested ranged its CHO content from 38 to 120 g and included challenging meals like pasta. Also, the participants performed mild exercise (3-5 km walks) daily. The clinical trial is registered in ClinicalTrials.gov with identifier: NCT04793165.
resultsThe ARG algorithm showed an improvement in the time in hyperglycemia (52.2% [16.3%] OL vs 48.0% [15.4%] CL), time in range (46.9% [15.6%] OL vs 50.9% [14.4%] CL), and mean glucose (188.9 [25.5] mg/dl OL vs 186.2 [24.7] mg/dl CL) compared with the OL therapy. No severe hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia episodes occurred during the trial. The InsuMate platform achieved an average of more than 95% of the time in CL.
conclusionThe results obtained demonstrated the feasibility of outpatient full CL regulation of glucose levels involving the ARG algorithm and the InsuMate platform.
