The efficacy of theory driven treatment adherence promotion program among type 2 diabetic patients: application of intervention mapping and mHealth.
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 3 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
Background: Mobile health interventions (mHealth) may improve health-related lifestyle behaviors and disease management. Successful management of diabetes is patient-centered responsibility. The aim of this research was to determine the efficacy of the theory driven program of promoting treatment adherence in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients based on mHealth. Methods: This quasi-experimental research was conducted on 70 T2DM patients in Tehran, Iran. Participants were randomly divided into intervention (n = 35) or control (n = 35) groups. The data collection tool was a questionnaire based on some of constructs Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) which elicit from formative evaluation. The SCT theory-based intervention program was developed, implemented, and evaluated based on Intervention Mapping (IM) as a framework in 8 sessions using online WhatsApp application. The data was collected through by online interviews before and one month after the implementation of the program and analyzed in SPSS version 16. Results: After the implementation of the program, a significant increase in self-efficacy (P = 0.009), outcome expectations (P < 0.001), and also diabetes treatment adherence behaviors (P = 0.024) were indicated in the intervention group. The estimated effect sizes for self-efficacy, outcome expectations, social support, and diabetes treatment adherence behaviors were 0.78, 0.06, 0.07, and 0.62, respectively. Conclusion: Estimated effect size of the implemented intervention was evaluated as "large" effect for diabetes treatment adherence behaviors. Findings indicated the usefulness and efficacy of the mHealth educational program based on SCT constructs and the IM approach in treatment adherence behaviors promotion among T2DM patients in Iran.
