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

purpose of reviewTo provide an updated review of the fear of hypoglycemia (FOH) literature published from 2016 to 2025, in youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and their caregivers. RECENT

findingsThe Hypoglycemia Fear Surveys (HFS) are the most used questionnaires to assess FOH in studies conducted in the United States and internationally. The factor structure of the Parent and Child versions of the HFS have been updated to better reflect only maladaptive aspects of managing FOH. Diabetes technology studies routinely include the HFS to assess FOH as a secondary outcome. Only two randomized clinical trials (RCT) to reduce FOH have been conducted with youth with T1D and their caregivers. FOH is a common psychological complication occurring in youth with T1D and their caregivers. More research is needed to update the HFS to reflect modern T1D self-management and test interventions that aim to reduce FOH in RCTs.
