Associations between income/employment status and diabetes care processes, health behaviors, and health outcomes in Japan: A cross-sectional study using claims data linked to a questionnaire survey.
Article in Journal of diabetes investigation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
AIMS/
introductionWe aimed to explore the associations between income/employment status and diabetes care processes, health behaviors and health outcomes. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis cross-sectional study used health insurance claims data between April 2021 and March 2022, and a questionnaire survey between December 2022 and January 2023 in Tsukuba City. The study analyzed the participants with diabetes (other than type 1) from those selected by stratified random sampling. We evaluated diabetes care processes, health behaviors and health outcomes by calculating weighted proportions among the groups. We also assessed the associations between income/employment status and these variables using multivariable modified Poisson regression models.
resultsOf the 264 identified participants, 161 (64.2%) were men and 168 (72.8%) were aged ≥65 years old. Compared with the low-income groups, the high-income group had a higher proportion of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors or glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists use (adjusted risk ratio [aRR] 1.70, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.07-2.72), a higher proportion of attendance to annual health checkups for ≥2 years (aRR 1.68, 95% CI 1.07-2.64) and a lower proportion of all-cause hospitalization (aRR 0.15, 95% CI 0.04-0.48); additionally, the middle-income group had a lower proportion of high total outpatient medical expenses (aRR 0.57, 95% CI 0.35-0.92). Compared to the no work time group, the full-time work group had a lower proportion of exercise habits (aRR 0.59, 95% CI 0.35-0.99) and a higher proportion of good self-reported health (aRR 2.08, 95% CI 1.22-3.55).
conclusionsSeveral variables were associated with income/employment status. Policy intervention should focus on high-risk groups identified by considering these associations.
