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

For optimal postprandial glucose (PPG) management, rapid-acting insulin analogs (RAA) should be administered 15 min before a meal; however, this may not be possible for some individuals. Ultra-rapid lispro (URLi) can be administered 0-2 min before or <20 min after a meal, which may improve patient satisfaction and PPG management. In this pilot study, we evaluated changes in quality of life (QOL) and glycemic management among Japanese outpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who switched from RAA to URLi. We enrolled 12 outpatients with T2DM and evaluated QOL using the insulin therapy-related (ITR) QOL questionnaire. The primary endpoint was the change in ITR-QOL scores at 12-15 weeks. Endpoints were evaluated using the one-sample Wilcoxon signed rank test or paired
