Experiences of Attending Group Education to Support Insulin Initiation in Type 2 Diabetes: A Qualitative Study.
Article in Diabetes therapy : research, treatment and education of diabetes and related disorders, 2020. 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
introductionType 2 diabetes is a progressive condition and many people require insulin therapy 5-10 years post diagnosis. Considering the global increase in type 2 diabetes, group education programmes to initiate insulin are beneficial as they are cost-effective and provide peer support. However, group education to initiate insulin has not been widely evaluated and there is a need to elicit the views and experience of people with type 2 diabetes who start insulin in groups. The aim of this study was to explore the perspectives of people with type 2 diabetes who receive nurse-led group-based insulin education.
methodsQualitative, semi-structured interviews of people with type 2 diabetes in south London, UK, who had attended group education sessions to start insulin. Inductive thematic analysis identified themes within the data.
resultsFifteen people with type 2 diabetes were interviewed. Three main themes were identified: creating a supportive environment; facilitator skills; and effectiveness of group. Factors which created a supportive environment included peer support, providing reassurance and printed materials. Facilitator skills associated with positive experiences included addressing negative insulin beliefs and managing group dynamics. The effectiveness of the group was determined by ongoing self-management success, need for more peer support, and insulin concerns post insulin education group.
conclusionPositive experiences of insulin group education for people with type 2 diabetes were associated with sharing experiences with other people starting insulin, reassurance from healthcare professionals, appropriate supportive materials, and skill of the facilitator to address insulin concerns and manage group dynamics. People with type 2 diabetes may benefit more from education if healthcare professionals are skilled in psychological techniques to facilitate group education aimed at addressing concerns around insulin therapy. Further research needs to assess the effectiveness of structured insulin group education for people with type 2 diabetes.
