Effectiveness of a web-based program on self-care behaviors and glycated hemoglobin in patients with type 2 diabetes: Study protocol of a randomized controlled trial.
Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundType 2 diabetes (T2DM) decreases the life expectancy and quality of life of diabetics and causes economic and societal problems. For this purpose, diabetes self-management education and support (DSMES) has been designed for many years, which is recently provided through technology-assisted education. Therefore, we developed a web-based program in accordance with DSMES to assess its effect on self-care behaviors and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) for patients with T2DM during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, which is described in detail in this paper. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis randomized controlled trial (RCT) was performed on 70 diabetic patients in Al-Zahra Hospital for three months. After random allocation, web-based educational content (including videos, lectures, educational motion graphics, text files, educational posters, and podcasts) according to DSMES was provided for the intervention group to improve self-care behaviors and HbA1c levels. The control group received routine educational pamphlets. A diabetes self-management questionnaire (21 questions) with a Likert scale was completed to assess self-care behaviors scores before and after intervention and three months later. Also, HbA1c was determined before and after the intervention. Analysis of variance with repeated measurements will be applied to compare mean scores of self-care behaviors components three times, and an independent
conclusionThe obtained results of this study might be useful for promoting self-care behaviors and assessing HbA1c in diabetic patients.
