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

Systematically improving empowerment is not easy when operating a diabetes program for older adults. This study aimed to develop and test the feasibility of the diabetes empowerment (Dia-Empower) program for older adults with type 2 diabetes. A non-randomized controlled study with a matched sampling design was conducted. Community-dwelling older adults with diabetes were allocated to either the Dia-Empower program group or a control group. Changes in the primary (diabetes self-care and empowerment) and secondary outcomes (body composition and physical function) were compared between the groups. The scores for diabetes self-care and empowerment were significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group. Changes in skeletal muscle mass and body fat ratio were significantly different between the groups. Handgrip strength and shoulder flexibility positively changed in the experimental group. The Dia-Empower program was feasible for older adults with diabetes in the community. In the future, it is necessary to study the long-term effects of the program and its effects on blood sugar control.
