Examining the relationship between social risk factors, diabetes prevention recommendations, and behaviors among US adults with prediabetes.
Article in BMC public health, 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
backgroundAmong US adults with prediabetes, only half engage in recommended prevention behaviors and little has been done to examine the role of multiple social risk factors.
methodsData from 4,310 adults with prediabetes (weighted 34,442,989) in the National Health Interview Survey 2016-2017 was used. Predictor variables included six social risk factors. Outcome variables included (1) receiving counseling for lifestyle change and (2) engaging in lifestyle change behaviors. Multiple logistic regression (glm function with poisson family and log link) models were run to estimate prevalence ratios, adjusting for relevant covariates.
resultsIn the fully adjusted models, inadequate access to care was associated with lower prevalence of receiving all forms of counseling for physical activity (PR = 0.63; CI 0.51; 0.78), fat/calories (PR = 0.70; CI 0.56; 0.86) and weight loss program (PR = 0.33; CI 0.19; 0.59). Lack of community was associated with lower prevalence of increasing physical activity (PR = 0.94; CI 0.88; 1.00). Educational deficit was associated with lower prevalence of increasing physical activity (PR = 0.88; CI 0.82; 0.94), reducing fat/calories (PR = 0.89; CI 0.83; 0.95) and being in a weight loss program (PR = 0.66; CI 0.51; 0.87). Food insecurity was associated with lower prevalence of reducing fat/calories (PR = 0.91; CI 0.84; 0.98). Inadequate access to care was associated with lower prevalence of being in a weight loss program (PR = 0.43; CI 0.23; 0.81).
conclusionThis study underscores the role of social risk factors in limiting diabetes prevention at a national level. To effectively address the barriers to diabetes prevention adoption in the US, social risk factors need to be accounted for as a part of a holistic care plan.
