Contested Ownership of Disease and Ambulatory-Sensitive Emergency Department Visits for Type 2 Diabetes.
Article in The American journal of the medical sciences, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05456906 (Avoidable Hospitalizations/ Emergency Department Visits- Meta-synthesis of Qualitative Research), which is not on this map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
backgroundApproximately 21 million persons have diabetes and account for 11.9% of all emergency department (ED) visits for a total cost of $14.1 billion. Nonemergent visits for ambulatory-sensitive conditions that could be managed by the primary care provider make up almost one-third of the ED visits. African Americans comprise approximately 30% of South Carolina's population but make up approximately 50% of the ED visits for diabetes. The purpose of the research was to explore the experiences of 20 African-American adults with diabetes with ambulatory-sensitive ED use. RESEARCH DESIGN AND
methodsThe research design for this study is grounded theory with dimensional analysis methods. Following ethics approval and informed consent, interviews were conducted, recorded and transcribed verbatim, and themes were analyzed to form the explanatory framework or matrix for ED use. The framework of context, conditions, processes and consequences provides a key for understanding the themes of the story embedded in the descriptive narratives.
resultsThe contested ownership of diabetes was the overarching perspective--"doing what I got to do," "it's always on mind… wishing not to be a diabetic" and "it's a constant burden." And handling diabetes involved taking decisions "into your hands." The context of perceived urgency of symptoms included all the reasons that precipitated ED visit--personal experience, primary care access and services and social network support for decisions--influenced ownership of these decisions.
