Exploring barriers and facilitators to pharmacist-provided diabetes self-management education and support.
Article in Journal of the American Pharmacists Association : JAPhA. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundPharmacists have the necessary clinical experience and medication knowledge to effectively provide diabetes self-management education and support (DSMES); however, barriers exist to DSMES implementation by community pharmacists.
objectiveThe aim of this study is to explore DSMES from the community pharmacists' perspectives, identify barriers and facilitators to pharmacist DSMES implementation, and guide development of pharmacist-provided DSMES programs in Idaho.
methodsImplementation climate, the theoretical framework for this project, is focused on how community pharmacists in Idaho perceive they will be supported by patients, health care providers, and insurers in DSMES implementation. Pharmacist investigators with qualitative research experience conducted semistructured interviews with 6 licensed community pharmacists from Idaho via Zoom between March and June 2020. Recordings were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using HyperRESEARCH 4.5.1. Themes, patterns, and dominant concepts that emerged from respondents' about DSMES were explored, labeled, and categorized into modifiable and nonmodifiable barriers and facilitators. This study was granted expedited approval by the Idaho State University Investigational Review Board.
resultsRelevant themes included current scope of practice, barriers, and facilitators. Subthemes related to the current scope of pharmacy practice included unclear roles and responsibilities and legislative constraints to practice. For barriers, subthemes included cost of set-up, billing and coding education, and the sustainability of services based on current reimbursement models. For facilitators, subthemes included the need for additional collaborations (external and internal), technology access, and trained pharmacy staff.
conclusionPharmacists are underutilized health care providers, capable of providing DSMES services if provided the necessary resources. This work identifies barriers and facilitators to pharmacist-led DSMES that can be considered by others when implementing DSMES or other disease management services.
