The role of spousal support for dietary adherence among type 2 diabetes patients: a narrative review.
Synthesis in Social work in health care, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07461857 (Minority-focused Environmental Health Education and Tracking), which is not on this map. Cited by 26 papers, 4 of them syntheses 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
Healthy eating is key to successful management of type 2 diabetes (T2D). As discussed in this narrative review, there are strong indications that spousal support is an important element affecting dietary adherence in T2D. To provide a synthesized review of this evidence, Google Scholar and PubMed were searched, 28 relevant studies were selected, and the results were narratively summarized. A framework for information synthesis was developed which categorized results into three major themes: how gender roles and spousal dynamics function in spousal support for dietary adherence, the role of race and ethnicity in the influence of spousal support on dietary adherence, and the extant interventional work specifically targeting spousal support for T2D. The reviewed studies indicate that gender role performance is the principal factor in the relationship between spousal support and dietary adherence in T2D, though race and ethnicity also contribute. Despite this evidence, interventions that specifically target spousal support to improve dietary adherence in T2D have had limited efficacy. A better understanding of the relationship between spousal support and dietary adherence, as well as a subsequent utilization of this information to create targeted and effective interventions, would be of great benefit to the field of diabetes management.
