Diabetes medication prescribing trends based on provider type and location in the United States.
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2025. 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
Background: As primary care physician numbers continue to decline, more patients with type 2 diabetes are likely to receive care from advanced practice providers (APPs), including physician assistants and nurse practitioners. Analyzing diabetes medication prescribing trends among these provider types is essential for ensuring evidence-based diabetes care. Methods: Data from the NAMCS were collected in August 2022 for the years 2015, 2016, 2018 and analyzed using IBM SPSS, employing chi-square analysis to assess associations between provider type, geographic location, and prescribed medications. Frequency distributions were calculated for patient characteristics and provider types. Results: Patients prescribed at least one diabetes medication ( Conclusions: The study revealed distinct prescribing patterns by provider type and geographic location. Notably, APPs tended to prescribe newer or specific medications in certain locations, highlighting the influence of provider type and geography on diabetes care. Further studies should include larger samples of APPs to deepen insights into these trends.
