Protocol and baseline characteristics for a community health worker-led hypertension and diabetes management program for South Asians in Atlanta: The DREAM Atlanta study.
Article in Contemporary clinical trials, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04263311 (Scaling Community-Clinical Linkage Models to Address Diabetes and Hypertension Disparities in the Southeast United States), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
backgroundSouth Asians are disproportionately affected by type 2 diabetes (DMII) and comorbid hypertension (HTN). Community health worker (CHW) interventions have been shown to improve chronic disease outcomes, yet few have been tailored for South Asians. This paper describes the study protocol and baseline characteristics of an evidence-based CHW intervention to improve blood pressure (BP) control among South Asian adults with diabetes and comorbid HTN in Atlanta, GA.
methodsA total of 195 South Asian adults were randomized to treatment and control groups, and of these 190 completed baseline surveys (97 treatment group and 93 control group). The treatment group receives five group education sessions on DMII and HTN management and two one-on-one goal setting sessions. MEASURES: Primary outcomes include feasibility, acceptability, and BP control (systolic blood pressure [SBP] <130 and diastolic blood pressure [DBP] <80). Secondary outcomes included changes in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), weight, diabetes self-efficacy, diet, and physical activity. BASELINE
resultsOf the enrolled sample, 56% are female and mean age is 56.0 (±11.7). All participants are foreign-born. Mean SBP was 139.2 ± 4.3 and mean DBP was 84.7 ± 9.5. Intervention outcomes are measured at baseline and 6-month endpoint for both study groups.
conclusionsTo our knowledge, this study is the first to document the efficacy of a HTN and DMII management intervention among South Asian adults in Atlanta, GA. Future findings of the submitted protocol will fill an important gap on the translation and adaption of evidence-based interventions that have relevance to immigrant and minority populations. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION: NCT04263311.
