Impact of negative attitudes and information-seeking behavior of adults with type 2 diabetes on treatment in Japan.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Introduction: Effective self-management of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults is influenced by emotions, thoughts, and information-seeking behavior. This study examined the relationship between the negative attitudes of Japanese adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus and information-seeking behavior, and whether this is associated with lower HbA1c levels. Methods: Adult outpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus completed a questionnaire survey and the relationships between negative attitudes at diagnosis and consultation, information-seeking behavior, and HbA1c levels were examined. Results: Respondents with higher HbA1c tended not to seek information ( Discussion: It appears that, even with negative attitudes, the combination of a long time before seeing a doctor and a self-blame mindset was associated with information-seeking behavior. This suggests that, even in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients who have negative attitudes, their self-management behavior can improve if their mindset leads to information-seeking behavior.
