The Maintain High Blood Glucose subscale of the child hypoglycemia fear survey: proposed preliminary cut points for screening youth with type 1 diabetes.

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
objectiveTo improve the clinical utility of the Maintain High Blood Glucose subscale of the Hypoglycemia Fear Surveys (HFS) by identifying clinically meaningful cut points associated with glycemic outcomes.
methodsYouth (N = 994; 13.96 ± 2.3 years) with type 1 diabetes and their caregivers (N = 1,111; 72% female) completed the Child or Parent version of the HFS. Modal Score Distribution, Standard Deviation Criterion, and Elevated Item Criterion approaches were used to identify proposed preliminary cut points for the Maintain High Blood Glucose subscale. The association between proposed preliminary cut points was examined with youth glycemic outcomes.
resultsA cut point of ≥7 for the Maintain High Blood Glucose subscale on the Child HFS was associated with a greater percentage of blood glucose readings >180 mg/dl (p < .01), higher mean blood glucose (p < .001), and a higher hemoglobin A1c (p < .05). In subsequent multiple regression analyses, controlling for other factors associated with glycemia, the significant association between scores above ≥7 and higher mean blood glucose and higher hemoglobin A1c remained. A clinically useful cut point was not identified for caregivers. However, elevated youth scores on the Maintain High Blood Glucose subscale were positively associated with elevated caregiver scores (phi = .171, p < .001).
conclusionsThe proposed preliminary cut point for the Maintain High Blood Glucose subscale will aid the type 1 diabetes care team in identifying youth whose behaviors may be contributing to their suboptimal glycemia.
