The association of continuous glucose monitoring with glycemic parameters in patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes: A prospective observational study.

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
Background: Uncontrolled glycemic parameters in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are a major concern. The present study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) on glycemic control in type 2 diabetics on insulin therapy. Materials and Methods: This prospective observational study was done in the Outpatient Department of General Medicine from January 1, 2021 till December 31, 2021 on patients with confirmed T2DM and on insulin therapy. Patients underwent detailed history and physical examination. The CGM device was inserted to record blood glucose levels throughout the day and night for monitoring. Parameters like glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting blood sugar (FBS), post-paradial blood sugar (PPBS), and lipid profile parameters [cholesterol, triglyceride (TG), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL)] were compared at baseline and after a follow-up of 3 months. Results: Of 107 patients screened, 100 were included in the study and seven were excluded. The mean age of the patients was 60.6 ± 11.1 years. Fifty-six (56%) of the patients were males, and 44 (44%) were females. The mean body mass index (BMI) was 22.9 ± 2.4 kg/m Conclusion: There was a significant improvement in the glycemic parameters and lipid profile parameters with the adoption of CGM. Overall, CGM is a novel method for practical use for management of patients with T2DM.
