Association between out-of-pocket health expenditure and the disease burden of diabetes mellitus: insights from GBD 2021.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objectives: As one of the most common chronic diseases, diabetes mellitus poses a significant challenge to healthcare systems. This study analyzes the relationship between out-of-pocket (OOP) expenditure levels and the disease burden of diabetes mellitus, provides evidence-based recommendations for optimizing OOP expenditure strategies, and seeks to uncover any potential impact of healthcare inequalities on the disease burden of diabetes mellitus. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed among 36 countries with varying percentages of OOP payments from Results: High OOP expenditure countries exhibited significantly higher diabetes-related DALYs ( Conclusions: This study shows that countries with high OOP expenditure tend to experience a significantly greater disease burden of diabetes mellitus, with obesity and urbanization levels being important correlates of diabetes-related DALYs.
