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

CONTEXT AND

objectiveSparse large-scale studies have characterized hypoglycemia symptomatology in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who use continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). This research aimed to evaluate the relationship of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH) with hypoglycemia symptomatology and frequency in this population.

designA cross-sectional survey was conducted in 2023. HypoA-Q was used to evaluate hypoglycemia frequency, symptomatology, and awareness. SETTING &

participantsRegistrants who used CGM in the T1D Exchange, a U.S. national T1D registry.

resultsSurveys were completed by 1480 adults with T1D who used CGM (53% female; mean diabetes duration 26 years). Compared to those with intact hypoglycemia awareness, IAH was associated with less frequent hypoglycemia symptom presentation across various glucose levels and lower glucose concentrations for first presenting hypoglycemia symptoms when awake (P < .05 for all). More than 70% of individuals with IAH did not regularly experience symptoms during episodes with glucose <54 mg/dL. When asleep, those with IAH were less frequently awoken by symptoms, more frequently awoken by others who recognized their hypoglycemia, and more frequently acknowledged hypoglycemia after an episode (P < .05 for all) despite using CGM. With reduced symptoms, both when awake and asleep, those with IAH experienced more hypoglycemic episodes that they were unable to self-treat than those with intact awareness (P < .05).

conclusionIAH continues to be associated with a significant reduction in detection of hypoglycemia symptoms, both when awake and asleep, in adults using CGM. Current diabetes technologies do not fully protect adults with T1D from hypoglycemia.
