The Biopsychosocial Model in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Narrative Review.
Review in Cureus, 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
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major global health concern and a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. More than hundreds of millions of individuals are affected due to its rise at an alarming rate. Its prevalence is influenced by multiple factors, including socioeconomic status, biological and environmental factors. These factors interact in complex ways to determine the progression of the disease, its onset and outcomes in the long run. Socioeconomic status, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, in addition to gender differences, plays a significant role in disease burden. Nonetheless, behavioural patterns, such as poor diet and a sedentary lifestyle, impair glycaemic control. The chronic nature of T2DM causes a major psychological burden as it is also a leading cause of anxiety and depression, which negatively affects the patients' ability to control their disease. The biopsychosocial model provides a holistic framework that addresses these dimensions, supporting patients both mentally and physically. The framework demonstrates that the management of T2DM requires holistic treatments that address biological aspects, psychological elements and social factors. Treatment planning for T2DM should incorporate pharmacological management in addition to lifestyle changes that help patients become active participants in their healthcare. This review explores that psychosocial care integration into diabetes treatment leads to better patient adherence, improved blood sugar control and enhanced life quality. Additionally, it explores the biopsychosocial determinants of T2DM by emphasising their importance in the approach to a diabetic patient, which aids in bridging the existing gap between clinical treatment approaches and patients' real-life experience to develop a targeted diabetes management strategy, enhancing patient-focused care for a T2DM patient.
