The Effect of Diabetes Self-Management Education on Glycemic Control in Minority Patients With Diabetes Mellitus.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background Diabetes self-management education (DSME) plays a vital role in diabetes control yet is highly underutilized, especially in the minority population. The efficacy of DSME on glycemic control among the Hispanic and non-Hispanic black population is not as well established as it is compared to the non-Hispanic White population. Methodology In this retrospective cohort study, patients who participated in both group and one-to-one DSME classes at Saint Francis Medical Center, Trenton, New Jersey, from 2017 to 2019 were identified. Mean hemoglobin A1c levels before DSME and after DSME were compared using paired t-test. Results A total of 344 patients were included in the study. Out of 344 patients, 200 (58%) patients were Hispanic and 97 (28%) were non-Hispanic black, 42 (12%) were Caucasian, and five (2%) were from other races. The mean hemoglobin A1c was reduced by an average of 1.08% among patients who participated in group DSME (DSME done in group settings) and by an average of 1.95% among patients who participated in one-to-one DSME (DSME done in individualized settings). Conclusion DSME is effective in reducing hemoglobin A1c levels in Hispanic and non-Hispanic black majority patients. One-to-one DSME is more effective than group DSME in reducing hemoglobin A1c in this patient population.
