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

Objectives: The objective of the study is to assess the knowledge and practice concerning insulin therapy in adult diabetic Sudanese patients and relate it with their control of diabetes and selected demographic variables. Methods: Personal interview, using a specific pretested designed questionnaire was used to collect data from 200 adult diabetic patients in Jabir Abuleiz center in Khartoum state. Result: The result showed that only 15% of the respondent had adequate knowledge about insulin use. Also, good knowledge was associated with a higher level of education and good glycemic control (P < 0.001). Conclusion: Knowledge about insulin therapy has an important role in the control of diabetes mellitus. Those who are knowledgeable about insulin therapy are more likely to have good control of HbA1c.
