Association of intermediate health determinants with gestational diabetes self-care: a structural equation modeling approach.

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
introductionGestational diabetes is a common problem among pregnant women that can lead to many complications for the mothers and their fetuses. Gestational diabetes self-care can reduce the consequences and outcomes of this disease. Some of the factors related to self-care of gestational diabetes are quality of life, social support, and domestic violence. This study aims to investigate the relationship between quality of life, perceived social support, and domestic violence with gestational diabetes self-care using structural equation modeling.
methodThis cross-sectional study was conducted on 400 pregnant women with gestational diabetes from April 22, 2023, to July 6, 2023, in Tehran using convenience sampling. Data were collected using demographics, domestic violence, perceived social support, quality of life, and gestational diabetes self-care questionnaires. After data collection, data analysis was performed using SPSS-21 and Lisrel-8 software.
resultsAccording to the results obtained from structural equation modeling, among the variables that were related to gestational diabetes self-care, quality of life (B = 0.86) in the direct path and perceived social support (B = 0.48) in the indirect path had the highest positive relationship with gestational diabetes self-care. Domestic violence was the only variable that had no relationship with gestational diabetes self-care in any of the paths.
conclusionAccording to the path analysis, gestational diabetes self-care is directly influenced by perceived quality of life but perceived social support is indirectly positively related to the impact on quality of life with gestational diabetes self-care. Therefore, it is recommended that actions and strategies be adopted to improve the quality of life and increase perceived social support in this vulnerable group.
