Family model diabetes self-management education and support in faith-based organizations in the Republic of the Marshall Islands: A study protocol.
Article in Contemporary clinical trials, 2024. 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
introductionThe Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) is an independent nation and a member of the United States (US) Affiliated Pacific Islands through a Compact of Free Association. Health disparities in the RMI are striking, with high rates of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The International Diabetes Federation has documented age-adjusted prevalence of T2DM at 23.0 %, compared to the US (13.2 %) and globally (9.8 %). T2DM has a devastating impact on patients and their families.
methodsThe purpose of this article is to present the study protocol for the fully powered two-arm cluster randomized controlled trial using a wait-list control to evaluate the effectiveness of a Family Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (Family DSMES) program when delivered in a group setting by community health workers (CHWs) in faith-based organizations (FBOs) in the RMI. The study used a community engaged approach, and the study protocol includes adaptations based on the results of our one-arm pilot study. SUMMARY: This study will provide new and innovative information on the effectiveness of Family DSMES delivered in a group setting by CHWs in FBOs in the RMI. The knowledge gained from this research will inform DSMES interventions conducted with Marshallese and other Pacific Islander communities, as well as DSMES interventions conducted in other low-resource countries.
