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

A Federally Qualified Health Center received ongoing external support for half-time salaries for two nurse practitioners to treat people with poorly controlled diabetes (A1C >9.0%) in the clinic's diabetes program using approved detailed treatment protocols. Patients were treated for 1 year and graduated from this program if their A1C fell to <7.5%. Ninety-one percent graduated, and treatment was deemed to have failed in 9% who did not achieve an A1C <7.5% by the end of the year of treatment. The suggestion is made to assign a specially trained diabetes nurse or physician assistant to serve many primary care providers at important clinical junctures to improve diabetes outcomes throughout busy primary care practices.
