Prevalence and socioeconomic factors of diabetes: a population-based cross-sectional analysis from Jordan.
Article in Journal of global health, 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
Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a significant public health issue in Jordan. While several studies have investigated the biological and behavioural determinants' influence on diabetes mellitus incidence, prevalence and outcomes, few studies investigated socioeconomic factors. Moreover, the available Jordan-based literature lacks an investigation of the influence of socioeconomic factors on diabetes outcomes. This research seeks to evaluate the incidence of DM among the adult population of Jordan and examine the influence of significant socioeconomic variables. Methods: The research team used the 2017-2018 Jordanian Demographic and Health Survey of individuals aged 40 and older. We used self-reported data to assess the prevalence and onset of diabetes. Descriptive and inferential analyses assessed the association between diabetes and the extracted socioeconomic variables. Results: Of the 21 860 extracted records, 3443 (15.8%) were related to diabetic patients. Approximately, 60% of those who were diagnosed with DM were in the 40-59 years age range. Statistically significant associations were found between the prevalence of DM and socioeconomic factors. Older age and low educational attainment were significantly associated with a higher prevalence of DM. The wealth index and residential location were also significantly associated with DM prevalence. Conclusion: The study findings emphasise the need for specifically tailored and delivered public health interventions targeting individuals with challenging socioeconomic factors such as older age and low educational attainment. Healthcare providers and policymakers should focus on delivering and sponsoring educational and awareness programmes to promote self-care and the adoption of health-seeking lifestyle behaviours and practices among unprivileged and at-risk local communities. Healthcare authorities could initiate community-based diabetes screening programmes targeting marginalised and at-risk groups.
