Continuous peri-operative glucose monitoring in noncardiac surgery: A systematic review.
Synthesis in European journal of anaesthesiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundGlucose management is an important component of peri-operative care. The usefulness of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in noncardiac surgery is uncertain.
objectiveTo systematically assess the glycaemic profile and clinical outcome of patients equipped with a CGM device during the peri-operative period in noncardiac surgery.
designSystematic review. DATA SOURCES: Electronic databases were systematically searched up to July 2024. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: Any studies performed in the peri-operative setting using a CGM device were included. Closed-loop systems also administering insulin were excluded. Analyses were stratified according to diabetes mellitus status and covered intra-operative and postoperative data. Outcomes included glycaemic profile (normal range 3.9 to 10.0 mmol l -1 ), complications, adverse events, and device dysfunction.
resultsTwenty-six studies (1016 patients) were included. Twenty-four studies were not randomised, and six used a control arm for comparison. In bariatric surgery, diabetes mellitus patients had a mean ± SD glucose of 5.6 ± 0.5 mmol l -1 , with 15.4 ± 8.6% time below range, 75.3 ± 5.5% in range and 9.6 ± 6.7% above range. During major surgery, diabetes mellitus patients showed a mean glucose of 9.6 ± 1.1 mmol l -1 , with 9.5 ± 9.1% of time below range, 56.3 ± 13.5% in range and 30.6 ± 13.9% above range. In comparison, nondiabetes mellitus patients had a mean glucose of 6.4 ± 0.6 mmol l -1 , with 6.7 ± 8.4% time below range, 84.6 ± 15.5% in range and 11.2 ± 4.9% above range. Peri-operative complications were reported in only one comparative study and were similar in CGM and control groups. Device-related adverse events were rare and underreported. In 9.21% of cases, the devices experienced dysfunctions such as accidental removal and issues with sensors or readers.
conclusionDue to the limited number of controlled studies, the impact of CGM on postoperative glycaemic control and complications compared with point-of-care testing remains unknown. Variability in postoperative glycaemic profiles and a device dysfunction rate of 1 in 10 suggest CGM should be investigated in a targeted surgical group.
