1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

aimTo assess the effects of health locus of control-based education programme (HLCEP) on self-management, health locus of control and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

designQuasi-experimental study.

methodsThe study recruited 120 T2DM participants from May-September 2020. The control group received one-week in-hospital care and 12-week follow-up. The intervention group received additional HLCEP. The self-management and the health locus of control were measured by using the Summary of Diabetes Self-care Activities and the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control at baseline and the 4th and 12th week after discharge. The HbA1c was collected at baseline and the 12th week after discharge. The generalized estimating equation analysis was performed to assess the intervention effects.

resultsThe intervention group has statistically significantly higher scores on the overall level of self-management, dietary management, foot care, medication management and internal health locus of control, while a lower HbA1c level than the control group.
