Glucose management in critically ill adults: A qualitative study from the experiences of health care providers.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Aims and objective: To explain the components and elements of glucose management in critically ill adult patients from the healthcare providers' experiences. Background: Critically ill adults are highly susceptible to stress-induced hyperglycaemia due to glucose metabolic disorders. Healthcare workers play a key role in the glycaemic management of critically ill patients. However, there is a lack of qualitative studies on the content and elements of glycaemic management and healthcare workers' perceptions about glycaemic management in China. Design: Qualitative study that followed the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research (COREQ) guidelines. Methods: Individual semi-structured interviews were conducted from January to April 2022. Fifteen physicians and nurses were recruited from ten hospitals in mainland China. Data were analysed using inductive thematic analysis. Results: Glucose management in critically ill adult patients from their experiences included two parts: the inner ring (practice behaviours) and the external space (methods and drivers). The practice behaviours of glucose management include five elements, while the methods and drivers of glucose management focus on three elements. The content covered under each element was identified. Conclusion: This study developed a glycaemic management model for critically ill adult patients, clarified its elements based on the perceptions of healthcare providers and elaborated on the methods and drivers covered under each element to provide a reference for physicians and nurses to develop a comprehensive glycaemic management guideline for critically ill adult patients. Relevance to clinical practice: Our study proposed a glucose management practice model for critically ill adult patients, and the elements and components included in this model can provide a reference for physicians and nurses when performing glucose management in critically ill patients.
