Diabetes knowledge and socio-economic status among adults with type 2 diabetes.
Article in Medicine and pharmacy reports, 2026. 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
Background and aims: Sociodemographic factors and diabetes knowledge play a crucial role in the management and long-term outcomes of type 2 diabetes, influencing both disease progression and the risk of complications. We aimed to assess the relationship between socio-economic status and diabetes knowledge using a demographically appropriate questionnaire for evaluating socioeconomic status and a culturally tailored bilingual diabetes knowledge assessment test for patients with type 2 diabetes in a multi-ethnic setting. Methods: Our study was conducted in Mureş County, Romania, among adults with a minimum one-year history of type 2 diabetes. We collected data on the participants' sociodemographic and socioeconomic status. Our assessment test for diabetes knowledge consisted of 30 true-or-false statements, addressing etiology and risk factors, diabetes-related complications, and treatment, including lifestyle interventions and medication. Statistical analysis was carried out in the SPSS software. Results: We screened 202 diabetic patients, 109 patients met the inclusion criteria and were enrolled in the study. Data were collected on their sociodemographic and socioeconomic characteristics, and they also completed the diabetes assessment test. Between the sociodemographic features and diabetes knowledge, only the diabetes duration showed a statistically significant positive correlation with the total (r(107) = 0.254, r Conclusion: In the study population, there was a statistically significant association between the performance on the assessment test and education level, type of antidiabetic treatment, household income and diabetes duration.
