The effectiveness of home-based nursing intervention in the elderly with recurrent diabetic foot ulcers: A case report.
Article in Journal of public health research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundInadequate glycemic control usually leads to peripheral neuropathy, vasculopathy, and foot deformities that leads to diabetic foot ulcer (DFU), and a 10-years history of diabetes and inadequate self-management increases the risk of reoccurring DFU. A home-based intervention program, which includes Diabetes Self-Management Education (DSME) and wound care is the most likely approach, to engage families and overcoming the barriers in self-care management. The aim of this study is to provide an overview on the effectiveness of home-based nursing intervention in the elderly patients with reoccurring diabetic foot ulcers. DESIGN AND
methodIn this study, a case study approach was used that presented a case related to self-management and wound care in elderly patients with reoccurring DFU. The intervention was carried out by the community health nurses for eight weeks with home visit.
resultsSignificant changes were reported in diabetes self-management practices, blood glucose level, and wound healing. The Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ) score increased from 5,62 to 8,54 and the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities (SDSCA) score increased from 3,2 to 6. The Bates Jansen Examination score decreased from 24 and 26 to 17 and 14 in six weeks.
conclusionsThe results confirm that family-based interventions program are effective in improving glycemic control and wound healing. Community nursing is believed to prevent an increase in self-management behavior to prevent recurring DFU and maintain a healthy life-style about diabetes self-management education.
