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

backgroundStress-induced hyperglycemia (SIH) is common in critically ill patients and has been associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Intensive insulin therapy (IIT) has been proposed to mitigate these risks by achieving tighter glycemic control.

aimTo evaluate the efficacy of IIT for managing SIH in critically ill patients and to explore its potential effect on cardiac function.

methodsA retrospective study was conducted at our hospital from January 2021 to December 2024, adhering to STROBE guidelines. A total of 186 critically ill patients were divided into normal glycemia (

resultsSIH markedly worsened haemodynamics versus normal glycaemia: RAP 9.8 ± 5.1

conclusionIIT significantly reduced cardiac filling pressures, improved cardiac function, and was associated with favorable clinical outcomes in SIH patients, suggesting potential benefits of stricter glycaemic control in critically ill patients. However, given the retrospective design and absence of glucose-variability monitoring, these findings should be interpreted with caution.
