The Importance of General Self-Efficacy for the Quality of Life of Adolescents with Diabetes or Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis Over Time: A Longitudinal Study among Adolescents and Parents.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeTo (i) investigate the influence of general self-efficacy on quality of life outcomes over time among adolescents with type I diabetes or juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA), (ii) investigate parents' perceptions of general self-efficacy and quality of life of adolescents with diabetes or JRA over time, and (iii) identify possible differences in the evaluations of adolescents and parents.
methodsThis study included adolescents aged 12-25 years with type I diabetes or JRA and their parents. At T1, 171/573 (30% response rate) adolescents with diabetes or JRA and 229/563 (41% response rate) parents completed the questionnaire. At T2, 230/551 (42% response rate) adolescents and 220/559 (39% response rate) parents still participating in the study completed the questionnaire. A total of 112 adolescents and 143 parents filled in the questionnaires at both T1 and T2.
resultsAdolescents perceived significant improvement in their general self-efficacy and reduced quality of life over time, whereas parents' perceptions did not change. According to adolescents and parents, physical functioning was better among adolescents with diabetes than among those with JRA. Regression analyses of adolescents' data showed that general self-efficacy at T1 (β = 0.13; p ≤ 0.10) and changes in general self-efficacy (β = 0.22; p ≤ 0.01) predicted quality of life at T2. Parents' responses revealed that adolescents' general self-efficacy at T1 (β = 0.16; p ≤ 0.05) and changes in adolescents' general self-efficacy (β = 0.18; p ≤ 0.05) predicted adolescents' quality of life at T2.
conclusionGeneral self-efficacy and changes therein positively affected quality of life in adolescents with diabetes or JRA over time, as perceived by adolescents and parents. These findings emphasize the need for the implementation of interventions aiming to improve general self-efficacy in these populations.
