Adults' Experiences with Type 2 Diabetes in Rural Guatemala: A Qualitative Study.
Article in Journal of health care for the poor and underserved, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundGiven that the diabetes burden is rising rapidly in low- and middle-income countries, it is critical to understand perspectives of people living with diabetes in these settings. This qualitative study examines perceptions of causality and treatment among adults with type 2 diabetes in rural Indigenous communities of Guatemala.
methodsWe conducted semi-structured interviews with 29 people living with type 2 diabetes from a population survey in two majority Indigenous Guatemalan towns. Data were coded inductively and themes were elucidated by consensus.
resultsParticipants emphasized strong emotional experiences and stress as perceived causes of diabetes, as well as diet and heritability. All participants took biopharmaceutical treatments, but many also endorsed diet, exercise, herbal remedies, and naturopathic products as important remedies.
conclusionPerspectives from people living with diabetes in two rural Indigenous towns in Guatemala differ from the biomedical model of disease and have implications for clinical practice and program development.
