Evaluation of a Diabetes Prevention Intervention for Korean American immigrants at Risk for Diabetes.
Article in Health equity, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Purpose: Despite the small but growing number of studies documenting the increasing prevalence of diabetes among Korean Americans, no culturally adapted interventions have been developed for Korean Americans at risk for diabetes. We evaluate the efficacy of a culturally tailored lifestyle intervention among Korean American immigrants at risk for diabetes in New York City (NYC). Methods: Korean Americans at risk for diabetes were recruited into a culturally adapted, community health worker (CHW) intervention in NYC. Treatment group participants received 6 group sessions and 10 follow-up phone calls from CHWs over the 6-month period. Control participants received only the first session. Study outcomes included changes in weight, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, physical activity (PA) and PA behaviors, nutrition behaviors, and diabetes knowledge. Paired Results: The treatment group reported significant positive changes in recommended weekly PA, PA self-efficacy, PA barriers, nutrition self-efficacy, diabetes knowledge, weight, BMI, and systolic blood pressure compared with control participants. Generalized estimated equations models for repeated measures assessed change across time while adjusting for study arm, time point, and the interaction between study arm and time point. The intervention effect was significant for weekly moderate and vigorous PA, recommended weekly PA, PA self-efficacy, and diabetes knowledge. Conclusions: Results suggest that a culturally adapted lifestyle intervention for Korean American immigrants at risk for diabetes have the potential to improve behaviors associated with cardiovascular disease outcomes and diabetes prevention. Further research among Korean Americans is warranted.
