Effectiveness of a Family-based Health Promotion Intervention for Women With Prior GDM: The Face-It RCT.
Trial report in The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
contextGestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) increases the risk of future type 2 diabetes (T2DM), but effective and feasible interventions to reduce this risk are lacking.
objectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of a family-based health promotion intervention on T2DM risk factors and quality of life among women with recent GDM.
designMulticenter, parallel, open-label randomized controlled trial with 2:1 allocation ratio.
settingThree sites in Denmark.
participantsWomen diagnosed with GDM. INTERVENTION(S): The intervention consisted of (1) home visits with tailored family-based counseling (2) digital health coaching, and (3) structured cross-sectoral communication.
main outcome measuresPrimary outcomes were body mass index (BMI) and quality of life [12-Item Short-Form mental component score (SF12 MCS)] 1 year after delivery.
resultsWe randomized 277 women to the intervention (n = 184) or usual care group (n = 93). The intervention did not result in significantly lower BMI [-0.44 kg/m2; 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.98 to 0.11] or higher SF12 MCS (0.06; 95% CI -2.15 to 2.27) compared to the usual care group. A prespecified post hoc analysis demonstrated a reduced BMI in the intervention group among women with BMI ≥25 kg/m2 (-0.86 kg/m2; 95% CI -1.58 to -0.14).Analyses of secondary and tertiary outcomes indicated significantly lower 2-hour insulin (-94.3 pmmol/L; 95% CI -167.9 to -20.6) and triglycerides (-0.18 mmol/L; 95% CI -0.30 to -0.05) levels, and odds of fasting plasma glucose ≥6·1 mmol/L (odds ratio 0.33; 95% CI 0.12 to 0.91) in the intervention group.
conclusionThe intervention did not result in lower BMI or increased quality of life but seemingly reduced other risk factors and lowered BMI in the subgroup of overweight women.
