Impact of Maintenance Session Attendance and Early Weight Loss Goal Achievement on Weight Loss Success in a Community-Based Diabetes Prevention Program Intervention.
Article in The science of diabetes self-management and care, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to examine how maintenance session attendance and 6-month weight loss (WL) goal achievement impacted 12-month 5% WL success in older adults participating in a community-based Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) lifestyle intervention.
methodsData were combined from 2 community trials that delivered the 12-month DPP-based Group Lifestyle Balance (GLB) to overweight/obese adults (mean age = 62 years, 76% women) with prediabetes and/or metabolic syndrome. Included participants (n = 238) attended ≥4 core sessions (months 0-6) and had complete data on maintenance attendance (≥4 of 6 sessions during months 7-12) and 6- and 12-month WL (5% WL goal, yes/no). Multivariate logistic regression was used to estimate the odds of 12-month 5% WL associated with maintenance attendance and 6-month WL. Associations between age (Medicare-eligible ≥65 vs <65 years) and WL and attendance were examined.
resultsBoth attending ≥4 maintenance sessions and meeting the 6-month 5% WL goal increased the odds of meeting the 12-month 5% WL goal. For those not meeting the 6-month WL goal, maintenance session attendance did not improve odds of 12-month WL success. Medicare-eligible adults ≥65 years were more likely to meet the 12-month WL goal (odds ratio = 3.03, 95% CI, 1.58-5.81) versus <65 years.
conclusionsThe results of this study provide important information regarding participant attendance and WL for providers offering DPP-based lifestyle intervention programs across the country who are seeking Medicare reimbursement. Understanding Medicare reimbursement-defined success will allow these providers to focus on and develop strategies to enhance program effectiveness and sustainability.
