Cardiovascular Risk and Blood Pressure Control in Patients with Diabetes at Federally Qualified Health Centers: Baseline Findings from the Office-GAP IMPACT (Office-Guidelines Applied to Practice Improving Diabetic Patients' Adherence to Treatment and Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease) Program.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 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
backgroundThe rate of diabetes and blood pressure (BP) control are low, particularly in patients with diabetes receiving care from federally qualified health centers (FQHCs). The Office-Gap IMPACT study (Office-Guidelines Applied to Practice Improving Diabetic Patients' Adherence to Treatment and Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease) is a patient activation intervention to improve care and health outcomes for patient with diabetes and cardiovascular disease in FQHCs and community health centers.
objectivesThis baseline analysis of the Office-GAP IMPACT study (1) aimed to describe the individual-level demographic and clinical characteristics of patients with diabetes enrolled in the Office-GAP study, (2) assess the associations between these characteristics and baseline BP and glycemic control, and (3) assess the differences in BP and glycemic control in three different counties in Michigan.
methodsWe enrolled 392 patients with diabetes in 17 clinical teams in 12 FQHCs located in three counties in Michigan. Teams were randomized into intervention, Office-Gap + Texting (group 1) vs. enhanced control, Texting only (group 2). Baseline demographic and clinical data were analyzed.
resultsAmong 392 patients, 68% had self-reported hypertension, 72% had hyperlipidemia, 30% had BMI < 30, 26% were current smokers, and 43% reported depression. Overall, 64% had HbA1c ≥ 9. Among those with hypertension, 26% achieved BP < 130/80 mmHg and 60% achieved BP < 140/90 mmHg.
conclusionPatients with diabetes receiving medical care at FQHCs are a diverse demographic population. The high prevalence of cardiovascular disease risk factors and the low rate of BP control in this demographic is a huge concern.
