Health literacy and self-efficacy of the elderly with diabetes.
Article in Journal of diabetes and metabolic disorders, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Aim: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between health literacy and self-efficacy in the elderly with diabetes. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 375 diabetic elderly members from a diabetes association, in Iran. Self-efficacy and health literacy questionnaires were used. The Pearson test was used to determine the relationship between self-efficacy and health literacy and linear regression was used to predict self-efficacy by health literacy. Results: Elderly men and women with diabetes showed a significant difference in terms of health literacy (P = 0.003). People over the age of 70 had a lower level of literacy (P < 0.05). The highest and lowest self-efficacy in the elderly patients were related to taking medications (89.75 ± 17.56) and physical activity (71.38 ± 24.40), respectively. The results of stepwise linear regression showed that health literacy is a predictor of self-efficacy in the diabetic elderly (r Conclusion: Health literacy is directly related to self-efficacy in older people with diabetes.
