Personality in Type 1 Diabetes and the Impact of Personality Traits on the Effects of Introducing Diabetes Technology.
Article in Psychology research and behavior management, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Aim: How well new technology is applied to the daily management of type 1 diabetes (T1D) may be highly influenced by personality traits. The number of studies examining how personality traits influence diabetes self-management technologies such as continuous glucose monitoring and carbohydrate counting with automated insulin bolus calculation based on carbohydrate ratios and insulin sensitivity is scarce. Derived from a randomized controlled trial, we aimed to examine the association between personality traits and glycemic and patient-reported outcomes in adults with T1D on multiple daily insulin injections initiating flash glucose monitoring and carbohydrate counting with automated bolus calculation. Methods: Personality trait scores from The Five-Factor Inventory-3 were analyzed in 170 individuals. We assessed baseline (n = 168) and changes (n = 34) in HbA1c, and patient-reported outcomes (validated questionnaires on diabetes distress, diabetes treatment satisfaction, diabetes psychosocial self-efficacy, diabetes quality of life) in bivariate and partial correlation analyses with personality traits (neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and conscientiousness). Results: Adjusted for sex, age, and diabetes debut age, higher agreeableness correlated negatively with baseline HbA1c (partial correlation -0.20, p < 0.05) but positively with HbA1c change over time (0.36, p < 0.05). Higher neuroticism score was associated with higher baseline distress (0.39, p < 0.001) and lower baseline psychosocial self-efficacy (-0.43, p < 0.001), quality of life (-0.32, p < 0.001) and treatment satisfaction (-0.18, p < 0.05). Conclusion: This study confirms that personality traits are associated with glycemia and patient-reported outcomes in adults with T1D. Consequently, tailored diabetes management approaches are likely to enhance overall outcomes, especially when incorporating diabetes technology.
