1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Self-care agency is crucial for the management of diabetes patients. The Appraisal of Self-Care Agency Scale-Revised (ASAS-R) is a reliable and brief measure of diabetic patients' SCA. In the MENA region, there is currently no Arabic version of the ASAS-R scale available. Aim: To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Arabic version of the ASAS-R among Arabic patients with DM. Methods: This study utilized a descriptive cross-sectional design. Exploratory factor analysis was used to test the scale's construct validity. Pearson correlation was used to test for its criterion-related and convergent validity. Results: Participants' ASAS-R total scores significantly correlated with diabetes self-efficacy ( Conclusion: The ASAS-R was found to be a psychometrically sound measure to evaluate self-care agency among Arabic patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus, for which future studies interested in self-care among patients with diabetes are invited to use the ASAS-R to validate its psychometric properties.
