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

aimsTo characterize differences in psychosocial variables between inner-city African American men and women with type 2 diabetes, and to test if the relationships between psychosocial variables and diabetes self-management behaviours differ by gender.

designSecondary analysis.

methodsWe used baseline data from participants enrolled in the Prevention through Lifestyle Intervention and Numeracy 4 Success-Diabetes study (N = 37). Differences in psychosocial variables between genders were compared using chi-square tests. A two-way analysis of variance was then used to compare self-management scores by different psychosocial characteristics and gender.

resultsThere was no statistically significant difference in psychosocial characteristics between genders. High diabetes knowledge and self-efficacy were associated with better self-management behaviours in African American women but not in men. In contrast, high numeracy was associated with better diabetes self-management only in men. Low depression, high health literacy, and high social support were associated with better self-management practices in both genders.
