Effect of health literacy-based teach-back training on quality of life and treatment adherence in type 2 diabetes: an experimental study.
Trial report in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Education for patients with type 2 diabetes is an essential part of the treatment and control process. This study aimed to determine the effect of education based on health literacy strategies on adherence to treatment and quality of life in type 2 diabetic patients. This classic experimental study was performed on 94 patients with type 2 diabetes selected by convenient sampling method and then randomly allocated to intervention and control groups. The research instruments were a demographic information questionnaire, a Diabetes Quality of Life Brief Clinical Inventory, and an adherence to treatment questionnaire in patients with chronic disease. The educational intervention was five sessions of the virtual class of 80-90 min. All respondents completed the tools again two months after the intervention. Independent t-tests and paired t-tests were used for data analysis. The difference in the mean score of quality of life in the intervention group between the time before (53.21 ± 7.6) the intervention and two months after (55.28 ± 6.87) was statistically significant (p˂0.05). Comparison of the mean score of quality of life between the control and intervention groups, before the intervention (p > 0.05) and two months after (p > 0.05), neither showed a statistically significant difference. A comparison of the mean scores of adherence to treatment before (69.31 ± 5.32) and after the intervention (70.59 ± 5.21) showed that there was a statistically significant difference in the intervention group (p˂0.001). Comparison of the mean scores of adherence two months after the intervention revealed that, there is a significant statistical difference between the scores of the two groups (p˂ 0.001). Based on the findings of this study, it seems that providing training sessions based on health literacy strategies can improve the quality of life and adherence to treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes.
