Evaluation of the quality of life of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus before and after an intervention with a remote multiprofessional educational program.

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
objectiveThis study aims to evaluate the quality of life (QoL) and glycemic control of children and adolescents living with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) before and after an intervention with a multidisciplinary educational program.
methodIn this prospective interventional study, 47 participants were divided into an intervention group (IG), which underwent a six-month in-person and online multiprofessional education program, and a control group (CG), which received standard in-person follow-up. After three months, all participants in this study had a continuous interstitial glucose monitor (CGM). QoL was assessed by the Pediatric QoL Questionnaire PedsQL 3.0 - Diabetes Mellitus Module. Scores were separated into tertiles.
resultsBoth groups had homogeneous general characteristics and mean HbA1c above the recommended levels. The QoL level in the IG and its guardians at T180 showed no differences but girls showed lower QoL scores at T0. Participants in the CG with intermediate perceptions showed a reduction in their QoL in the category "barriers to treatment" in relation to IG. The IG showed a significant increase in adherence to the carbohydrate counting method (CHCM). QoL, according to the parents'/guardians' perception, was lower than that of their children.
conclusionsThe intervention failed to significantly affect glycemic control either in HbA1c or in time in the therapeutic range. The intervention and CGM failed to improve glycemic control and QoL in individuals living with T1D and suboptimal glycemic control. However, it significantly increased adherence to CHCM.
