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

purposeThe aim was to describe experiences of the reconciliation process when living with insulin treated diabetes.

methodsThe study has a qualitative descriptive design, based upon nineteen in- depth interviews with persons diagnosed with insulin treated diabetes, analysed using qualitative content analysis.

resultsThe study show the reconciliation process during different time periods that appeared as domains in the interviews. The time at diagnosis showed experiences of striving for control getting insights and knowledge. It meant striving for control of life circumstance changes, supported by professionals but also from others. In Presence showed developing strategies as a tool struggling for balance in body and life and the need of evaluating relations to others. Future was sometimes avoided as this might lead to speculations about a future life with threats and uncertainty about disease complications, as well as adaption. This meant on the same time an uncertainty, as a degree of risk-taking and hope for the best.

conclusionsPersons with insulin treated diabetes need to develop flexible strategies for daily life to continuously re-evaluate their planning for attaining reconciliation. A conclusion is also that these persons need to develop a flexible regime that facilitates both quality of life and medical outcomes to reach reconciliation.
