Independent replication: S01 INDAO/NCT01731431 is an open-label randomized noninferiority trial at 13 French university hospitals in 914 women with medication-requiring gestational diabetes (glyburide 460/insulin 454). Prespecified PP 809 (367/442), perinatal-composite rates 27.6/23.4%, original difference +4.2 percentage points, one-sided 97.5% CI upper bound +10.5 percentage points, prespecified margin +7 percentage points, and noninferiority P=.19 are separated. The two sibling tables share the same trial/reports/participants/composition; no new independent trials/totals are created. Report/material slots are not unique clinical-trial, participant, or independent-replication totals; unique totals remain null. The same summary, bibliography, trial, events, timepoints, and sibling sheets are not summed as new independent replications. S02 Helal 2020 is the original synthesis report of 24 studies, 24,517 participants overall, and an 11-RCT subgroup. The evidence list separates RCT maternal hypoglycemia/LGA increases from overall pooled neonatal hypoglycemia OR 1.42 (CI 1.03–1.95), whereas the safety explanation describes RCT neonatal hypoglycemia/LGA. Each record and attribution difference are preserved without resolution while the original paper remains unread. Included-trial overlaps with INDAO/Langer and endpoint-specific denominators are unverified. Report/material slots are not unique clinical-trial, participant, or independent-replication totals; unique totals remain null. The same summary, bibliography, trial, events, timepoints, and sibling sheets are not summed as new independent replications. S03 Langer 2000 reports a 404-participant glyburide-versus-insulin RCT, primary glycemic control, and secondary individual perinatal outcomes. It was not a prespecified noninferiority test; LGA 12/13%, neonatal hypoglycemia 9/6%, no significant individual differences, and the opposing “clinically effective alternative” conclusion are preserved. It is not turned into replication/reversal of INDAO composite NI, zero harm, or equivalence. Funding “reported in the original paper”/nct “not applicable” do not establish an actual provider, registration identifier, or absence certification. Report/material slots are not unique clinical-trial, participant, or independent-replication totals; unique totals remain null. The same summary, bibliography, trial, events, timepoints, and sibling sheets are not summed as new independent replications.

Materials actually read: Summary read; external material unread  
Findings recorded in the summary: More maternal hypoglycemia and LGA with glyburide in the RCT subgroup, and overall pooled neonatal hypoglycemia OR 1.42 (95% CI 1.03–1.95). Wording at a different analysis level in the stored summary’s safety explanation is also preserved. The overall OR is not repurposed as RCT-only/INDAO/composite data; no new effects/CIs/totals/reassessment are created.

Materials actually read: Summary read; external material unread  
Findings recorded in the summary: LGA 12% versus 13%, neonatal hypoglycemia 9% versus 6%; no significant difference in individual complications; “clinically effective alternative” conclusion. Individual values and the original alternative conclusion are attributed to that earlier trial. Gaps in denominators/original CI/P/plans remain; no new judgment of passing NI, significant harm, or an exactly zero effect is made.

## What the statuses mean

- Met: Status for necessary evidence confirmed after existing content review. No completion is declared in the current presentation.
- Partly verified: Some information in the stored summary is linked into the table. External comparison/content review is not complete.
- Unverified: The article leaves this unverified, or required material is absent from the current stored summary. This is distinct from zero, absence or safety.
- Review incomplete: Existing content review remains incomplete.
- Not reported: Not reported within the stored material actually read; not extended to the entire primary paper.
- Inaccessible: Means an actual access failure. Access not attempted here is not assigned this state.
- Not applicable: Not used as a substitute for an evidence gap.
- Conflicting data: Requires an observed disagreement under the same comparison criteria; not automatically judged in this production.
- Insufficient evidence for the conditions: Marks a gap in additional material required by the selected conditions; not a new efficacy grade.
