Blood glucose control among type 2 diabetic farmers in Chinese resettlement areas: a mixed methods study.
Article in BMC endocrine disorders, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundDue to China's rapid urbanization, many farmers have relocated to urban resettlement regions. There is limited research on the glycemic control of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) farmers in these areas. This study examined their blood glucose control and its determinants.
methodsThis study took place from March 2021 to January 2022 in a resettlement community in Yiwu, Zhejiang Province, China. In the first phase, a quantitative survey of 181 T2DM farmers was conducted using a questionnaire to gather demographic data, blood glucose control status, disease cognition levels, and treatment compliance. Inclusion criteria were migrant workers with ≥ 3 months of residence and local household registration and T2DM patients who met the diagnostic criteria of the Chinese guidelines. In the second phase, qualitative research involved face-to-face, semi-structured interviews with 15 patients with varying blood glucose control levels to analyze their experiences.
resultsThe blood glucose control rate in this particular group was 27.62%, and the average disease cognition score was 2.5 ± 0.75. Many patients (67.96%) had inadequate treatment compliance, specifically in monitoring compliance (4.45 ± 1.92) and regular review compliance (3.58 ± 1.74).
conclusionThere is a need for tailored programs to improve glycemic control among resettled farmers. Enhancing disease awareness and treatment compliance through targeted education and support is crucial. Further studies are needed to evaluate different treatment regimens' impact on glycemic control. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
