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

objectivesTo assess the cost-effectiveness of the WISDOM self-management intervention for type 2 diabetes compared with care as usual.

designWe performed a difference-in-differences analysis to estimate differences in risk factors for diabetes complications between people in the WISDOM group (n = 25, 276) and a control group (n = 15, 272) using GP records. A decision analytic model was then used to extrapolate differences in risk factors into costs and outcomes in the long term.

settingParticipating GP practices in West Hampshire and Southampton, UK.

participantsAll people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes between January 1990 and March 2020 (n = 40,548). OUTCOMES: Diabetes-related complications, quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) and costs to the English National Health Service at 5 years and lifetime.

interventionsThe WISDOM intervention included risk stratification, self-management education programme to professionals and people with type 2 diabetes, and monitoring of key treatment targets.

resultsWISDOM was associated with less atrial fibrillation [p = 0.001], albuminuria [p = 0.002] and blood pressure [p = 0.098]. Among all people in the intervention group, WISDOM led to 51 [95%CI: 25; 76] QALYs gained and saved £278,036 [95%CI: -631,900; 176,392] in the first 5 years after its implementation compared with care as usual. During those people' lifetime, WISDOM led to 253 [95%CI: 75; 404] QALYs gained and cost saving of £126,380 [95%CI: -1,466,008; 1,339,628]. The gains in QALYs were a result of reduced diabetes-related complications through improved management of the associated risk factors.

conclusionsThe WISDOM risk-stratification and education intervention for type 2 diabetes appear to be cost-effective compared to usual care by reducing diabetes complications.
