Predictors Affecting Diabetes Related Distress among Diabetes Patients.

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: Diabetics experienced distress due to the disease. This distress may impact the quality of life and adherence to treatment by the diabetics. Thus, this study is aimed at identifying the factors affecting diabetes-related distress (DRD) among diabetic patients. Methods: A total of 100 diabetic subjects aged 18 years old and above were recruited. Data on socio-demographic data, anthropometry, hand grip strength (HGS) and body fat percentage were obtained. DRD was assessed using the Malay version of the 17-item diabetes distress scale (MDDS-17) questionnaire. Multiple linear regression was employed to identify the predictors of DRD and the significance value was set at Results: The majority of the subjects had low DRD (93%). Univariate analysis revealed that higher DRD scores were correlated with being single, never exercising and having lower education level, body weight, body fat percentage, body mass index (BMI) as well as HGS ( Conclusion: Predictors of DRD in this study were smoking and being either single/divorced/widow. These factors must be taken into consideration during the medical management of diabetics in order to ensure more holistic management of the disease and the distress it caused.
