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

aimsTo evaluate early glycaemic control (glycated haemoglobin [HbA1c] < 7.0% [<53.0 mmol/mol], fasting plasma glucose [FPG] ≤ 7.0 mmol/L or postprandial glucose [PPG] ≤ 10.0 mmol/L) with iGlarLixi versus insulin glargine 100 U/mL (Gla-100) in Asian people with suboptimally controlled type 2 diabetes (T2D) on oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) in LixiLan-O-AP or basal insulin (BI) ± OADs in LixiLan-L-CN. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis post hoc analysis evaluated changes from baseline to Week 12 in HbA1c, FPG and PPG, hypoglycaemia incidence and the rates of target HbA1c achievement at Weeks 8 and 12. Median time to glycaemic control (i.e., time to 50% achieving target HbA1c, FPG or PPG) was also assessed.

resultsAt Week 12, mean HbA1c reductions were greater with iGlarLixi versus Gla-100 in LixiLan-O-AP (-1.6% vs. -1.1% [-17.0 vs. -12.0 mmol/mol]) and LixiLan-L-CN (-1.3% vs. -0.5% [-13.9 vs. -5.4 mmol/mol]). PPG reductions were greater with iGlarLixi, while FPG reductions and hypoglycaemia incidence were similar. At Weeks 8 and 12, more participants had achieved target HbA1c or PPG with iGlarLixi versus Gla-100 in both studies. Median time to achieve HbA1c and PPG targets was shorter with iGlarLixi versus Gla-100 in LixiLan-O-AP (85 vs. 126 days and 84 vs. 167 days) and LixiLan-L-CN (85 vs. 239 days and 85 days vs. not estimable); median time to achieve FPG target was similar in LixiLan-O-AP (57 vs. 57 days) and LixiLan-L-CN (29 vs. 30 days).

conclusionsIn Asian people with T2D suboptimally controlled on OADs or BI, iGlarLixi provided comprehensive earlier glycaemic control than Gla-100.
