Insulinoma Unmasked: A Continuous Glucose Monitoring-Fueled Journey.
Article in Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.), 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
Insulinomas are rare functional neuroendocrine tumors that are usually indolent and small. Due to their rarity, there is often a delay in disease recognition and diagnosis, and small tumor size makes their localization challenging. Glucose monitoring and dietary modification with or without pharmacotherapy are crucial during diagnostics, and surgery is the only definite treatment. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems can be a valuable tool in managing insulinoma patients. We present three patients with confirmed endogenous hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia undergoing tumor localization, medical treatment, and surgery while wearing a CGM system. By accurately depicting glucose fluctuations, CGM can help prevent hypoglycemia, decrease hypoglycemia unawareness, track hypoglycemia frequency, aid in medical therapy dose titration, and confirm a cure after surgery.
