Development and Validation of Self-Management Infographics for Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Rural Kenya.
Article in Public health nursing (Boston, Mass.). 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
objectiveThe objective of the study was to develop and validate a set of infographics tailored for self-management by patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in rural Kenya, to prevent chronic kidney disease.
designIn collaboration with two graphic designers and through an iterative participatory process, the authors developed self-management infographics tailored for patients with T2DM. The authors followed the following steps in the development process: goal identification, target audience identification, definition of the intended message, identification of relevant symbols or graphics and infographic compilation. SAMPLE: The images were validated by using participatory groups with patients with T2DM (n = 13) and healthcare workers (n = 7) caring for patients with T2DM. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9186 testing guided the comprehension level of images.
resultsIn total, 28 infographics received a score greater than 66%. The following characteristics significantly affected the comprehensibility of the infographics: whether written text was included, prior knowledge, viewers' frames, image characteristics, whether images were familiar/commonly encountered, the positioning of images, and colors and measurements that could be interpreted intuitively.
conclusionsThe authors conclude that an iterative approach is viable for developing tailored infographics for specific populations.
