1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo generate an in-depth understanding of the perceptions and experiences of individuals with youth-onset type 2 diabetes (T2D) to inform knowledge translation initiatives and clinical care.

designInterpretive descriptive qualitative study.

methodsIndividuals were eligible to participate if they received a T2D diagnosis on or before 18 years of age, resided in Manitoba, and were between 10 and 25 years of age at the time of data collection. Twenty-two individuals (13 females, 7 males, 2 prefer not to indicate gender; mean age = 19.3 years) participated in 22 semi-structured interviews (mean length: 29:01 min) remotely using Zoom video conferencing software or by telephone. Data were analysed using inductive thematic analysis.

resultsFour themes were generated: (1) Low public knowledge, misconceptions, and stigma impact youth experiences including those of diagnosis, disclosure, treatment, and supports; (2) shared familial experiences impacts perception of the future; (3) mental and emotional wellness is critically important but requires more attention; and (4) T2D carries unanticipated positive and negative impacts for youth.

conclusionsFindings illustrate the complex interrelationships between public and personal conceptions of T2D, stigma, and T2D navigation, emphasising the centrality of emotional and mental well-being to participants' T2D experiences and management. This representation of experiences and perceptions of youth onset T2D offers direction for holistic and youth-centred research and care and highlights areas where further mental health and educational resources would be beneficial. PATIENT AND PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: The knowledge translation resource being developed from this study involves input from patient and public partners.
