1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

aimsA randomized control trial (RCT) of diabetes self-management education (DSME), undertaken by a community-based participatory research (CBPR) partnership between the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) and the Marshallese community in Arkansas. The RCT examined the effect of hours of intervention exposure, with the hypothesis that increased exposure is one reason the Adapted-Family DSME was found to be more effective than the Standard DSME.

methodsSome 221 Marshallese with type 2 diabetes were randomized to an Adapted-Family DSME group (in-home setting) (n = 110) or a Standard DMSE group (community setting) (n = 111). The Adapted-Family DSME included 10 h of education that covered the core self-care elements recommended by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and American Association of Diabetes Educators' (AADE) recommendations. The Standard DSME included 10 h of intervention with all ADA and AADE core elements.

resultsThe number of hours of intervention exposure in the Adapted-Family DSME arm (mean = 8.0; median = 10.0) was significantly higher than the number of hours of intervention received in the Standard DSME arm (mean = 1.5; median = 0.0). As hypothesized, higher exposure was associated with a significant reduction in HbA

conclusionsThis finding is consistent with previous reviews that showed increased exposure to DSME produced improved glycaemic control and ≥ 10 h of DSME produces clinically meaningful reductions in HbA
