Improving Health and Diabetes Self-Management in Immigrants with Type 2 Diabetes Through a Co-Created Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support Intervention.
Article in Journal of community health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
To examine the impact of a co-created culturally sensitive diabetes self-management education and support (DSMES) intervention on the physical and mental health of immigrants with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Pre- and post-test among people with T2D whose primary language was Urdu, Arabic or Turkish (n = 97). Participants were offered a six-week intervention based on a person-centred approach using research-based dialogue tools to facilitate learning and reflection, which was developed in co-creation with immigrants and healthcare professionals. Data were collected at baseline, post-intervention and after 6 months and analysed using paired t-tests, Wilcoxon signed-rank tests, chi-square tests and regression models when appropriate. Several clinical outcomes were improved post-intervention, including HbA1c (P < 0.001), body fat percentage (P = 0.002), self-rated general health (P = 0.05), well-being (P = 0.004) and several self-management behaviours, e.g., physical activity (P < 0.001). Most outcomes remained improved after 6 months, but the effect on HbA1c was no longer statistically significant. Some outcomes were improved only at 6 months, including waist circumference (P < 0.001) and diabetes-related emotional distress (P < 0.001). Fatigue did not change. Attendance at more programme sessions was associated with better outcomes. The DSMES intervention developed in a co-creation process was highly effective in improving the health of immigrants with T2D.
