Determination of the Perception Level of Life Style Innovations in Type 2
Article in Ethiopian journal of health sciences, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundIn this tudy, our aim was to measure information and behaviors of our patients about their diseases, and to determine the level of compliance with their treatment and to investigate the causes of nonconformities.
methodsA total of 111 patients who applied to outpatient clinics between May-December 2017 were included in this prospective cross-sectional study. Sociodemographic, clinical data, diabetes, medical nutrition therapy and physical activity questionnaires were administered face to face by the researchers.
resultsAbout 68.5% of the 111 patients were females. While 64.9% were primary school graduates, 58.6% were housewives and 82.9% were low income level. Body Mass Index (BMI) was found to be significantly higher in women (p=0.041). It has been found that the awareness of the patients about themselves and their illnesses are 37.8% for HbA1c, 64.8% for fasting blood sugar level, 78.3% for their height and body weight. While males had a higher score than females in the diabetes survey, females scored higher than males in the medical nutrition therapy and physical activity questionnaires. On the other hand, 46.8% of patients showed additional health problems as a cause of non-compliance to physical activity.
conclusionsLevel of knowledge and compliance with treatment were also found to be inadequate.
