Perceptions and Practices of Diabetes Prevention Among African Americans Participating in a Faith-Based Community Health Program.
Article in Journal of community health, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Black churches are instrumental in reducing chronic diseases, yet there is a paucity of literature regarding the association of Black churches and pre-diabetes among African Americans. The purpose of this study was to examine the diabetes prevention perceptions and practices of African Americans with pre-diabetes who participated in a larger intervention study (the Hosea Project). Interviews and focus groups (n = 51) were conducted 2 months following the intervention. A thematic analysis was performed to identify six emergent themes: general understanding of pre-diabetes and diabetes, diabetes prevention knowledge, program benefits, program barriers, lack of participation from men, and behavioral changes after program participation. This study illustrates how Black churches should serve as an intervention setting to increase pre-diabetes health behavior and education. Tailored and culturally appropriate programs can be beneficial in helping African Americans implement strategies to prevent diabetes.
