Effect of the EnBalance, a culturally and language-sensitive diabetes education program, on dietary changes and plasma lipid profile in Hispanic diabetics.
Article in International journal of body composition research, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectiveTo assess the effects of a language-sensitive diabetes education program on dietary changes and plasma lipid profiles.
methodHispanic participants (n=13 males and 18 females, mean age = 54.00 + 10.68 years) participated in a 3-month health education study. Spearman correlation coefficients were used to evaluate correlations between dietary intake and laboratory measurements.
resultsThere were significant decreases in serum total cholesterol (-16.07 mg/dl, P= 0.035), HDL cholesterol (-3.23 mg/dl, P = 0.01), LDL cholesterol (-11.71 mg/dl, P = 0.013) and dietary cholesterol (-79.22 mg, P = 0.03). No significant mean change was observed in triglyceride and total cholesterol/HDL ratio. There was also a reduction in body mass index (BMI) (-0.15 kg/m(2), P = 0.40), fasting glucose (-3.90 mg/dl, P = 0.43) and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) total fat (-0.50, P = 0.97). Although not statistically significant, saturated fatty acids (-4.90 g, P = 0.19), polyunsaturated fatty acids (-3.31g, P = 0.11), and carbohydrate (-44.82 g, P = 0.22), decreased after three months.
conclusionThere were significant improvements in dietary intake and serum lipids after a three-month culture-specific diabetes education program.
