Searching for type 2 diabetes prevention interventions in public health and community settings: protocol for a scoping review.
Article in BMJ open, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionType 2 diabetes is a growing global health challenge that requires effective prevention strategies. Public health and community-based approaches play an essential role in reaching vulnerable populations and addressing broader determinants of health. This protocol outlines a scoping review aimed at systematically mapping the existing evidence on lifestyle-based diabetes prevention interventions implemented in public health and community contexts. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: A systematic literature search will be conducted to identify relevant studies published in English or German from 1 January 2014 onwards. The following databases will be searched: PubMed, Web of Science Core Collection, CINAHL (via EBSCO), the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (via OVID) and ClinicalTrials.gov. Relevant websites and grey literature sources will be searched to identify further eligible studies. (Cluster-)randomised controlled trials, non-randomised controlled trials and clinical trials will be included. These must examine nutrition-based, physical activity-based or lifestyle-based interventions aimed at preventing type 2 diabetes in healthy adults or individuals with pre-diabetes, implemented in public health or community settings. Case reports and studies involving medical therapies or pharmacological interventions will be excluded. The literature search started in May 2025 and is expected to be completed by the end of December 2025. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: As this scoping review is based on the secondary analysis of publicly available data, no ethical approval is required. Our dissemination strategy includes publication in peer-reviewed journals, presentations at academic conferences and targeted dissemination to relevant interest holders. STUDY REGISTRATION: This project has been registered at Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/zafg5/), as PROSPERO does not accept registrations for scoping reviews.
