Patient satisfaction and its determinants in diabetes care: insights from NPPCD data in Iran.
Article in Journal of diabetes and metabolic disorders, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: Diabetes is a prevalent chronic disease requiring long-term, patient-centered care. Patient satisfaction is a key indicator of healthcare quality that enhances treatment adherence and outcomes. This study evaluates satisfaction levels among diabetic patients attending university care centers in Iran and analyzes trends and influencing factors. Methods: This study used data from the National Program for Prevention and Control of Diabetes (NPPCD) in Iran collected from March 2018 to June 2021. Satisfaction was assessed in Likert scale in four domains: treatment and follow-up by medical staff, physical health and complication management, personal and social relationships, and participation and education. A total of 392,269 records were analyzed, with results presented according to age, gender, disease duration, and year of visit. Results: Treatment and follow-up by medical staff had the highest satisfaction (33.78% completely satisfied, 53.56% satisfied), while satisfaction with personal and social relationships was the lowest (14.43% completely satisfied, 46.71% satisfied). Longer disease duration correlated with lower satisfaction. Conclusion: While satisfaction with treatment was highest, personal and social relationship support needs improvement. Holistic interventions and continuous evaluation can enhance patient care quality and outcomes.
