Prediabetes awareness is not associated with lower consumption of self-reported added sugar in U.S. adults.
Article in Annals of epidemiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
aimsAdults aware of having prediabetes report engaging in dietary risk-reduction behavior changes. However, no studies have assessed if prediabetes awareness influences self-reported consumption of added sugar.
methodsCross-sectional data from 3314 adults, 20 years and older, with prediabetes were analyzed from 2013-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data. Survey-weighted ordinary least squares regression was used to test whether prediabetes awareness was associated with usual intake of added sugar (g/day) using the National Cancer Institute Method by age, sex, and race/Hispanic origin after controlling for sociodemographic covariates.
resultsAmong 3314 adults with prediabetes, 528 reported being aware and 2786 reported being unaware of their condition. Prediabetes awareness was not significantly associated with added sugar consumption (estimated difference 1.7 g; 95% CI: - .80, 4.20; P = .18). There were no significant differences in added sugar consumption among those aware of their condition for age, sex, or race/Hispanic origin (Type 3 test for age: P = .15, male: P = .86, race, and Hispanic origin: P = .89).
conclusionAdults with prediabetes, aware of their condition, do not consume significantly lower quantities of added sugar compared to unaware adults, including no differences observed by age, sex, and race/Hispanic origin.
