Internal medicine residents' comfort with and frequency of providing dietary counseling to diabetic patients.
Article in Journal of general internal medicine, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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.
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
backgroundResident physicians' preparedness to provide dietary counseling for the rising number of diabetic patients is unclear.
objectiveTo assess the comfort with, frequency of, and perceived effectiveness of diabetic dietary counseling by internal medicine (IM) residents.
designCross-sectional survey.
participantsOne hundred eleven IM residents at a single academic institution.
resultsSurvey response rate was 94%. Fewer residents (56%) were comfortable with diabetic dietary counseling compared with counseling on symptoms of hypo/hyperglycemia (90%, p < 0.001). Residents less frequently provided diabetic dietary counseling (63%), compared with counseling for medication adherence (87%, p < 0.001). The 28% of residents reporting prior education with chronic disease self-management were more comfortable with diabetic dietary counseling (OR 3.2, 95% CI 1.4-7.3, p = 0.006), and reported counseling more frequently, although this difference was not statistically significant (OR 1.8, 95% CI 0.86-3.8, p = 0.12). More frequent counseling was reported by those residents who were more comfortable (OR 1.5, 95% CI 1.0-2.2, p = 0.03) or felt more effective (OR 3.6, 95% CI 2.1-6.1, p < 0.001) with their diabetic dietary counseling.
conclusionOverall, IM residents reported low levels of comfort with and frequency of diabetic dietary counseling. However, residents who were more comfortable or who felt more effective with their dietary counseling counseled more frequently.
