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

aimThis systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to estimate the prevalence of mental health disorders among adults (≥ 18 years) with diabetes in different ethnic populations.

methodsA comprehensive search was conducted in five databases (EMBASE, Medline, PsycINFO, Scopus, and CINAHL) for peer-reviewed observational studies published in English between 2014 and 2024. Studies reporting the prevalence of mental health disorders determined using validated self-report screening tools or clinical diagnoses were included. Meta-analyses using random-effects models were conducted. Subgroup analyses and meta-regressions explored differences by ethnicity, diabetes type, diagnostic method, duration of diabetes, country income level, and indigenous status.

resultsOf 17,723 identified records, 53 studies met the inclusion criteria. The pooled prevalence of mental health disorders among adults with diabetes was 25.78% (95% CI: 23.27-28.29), with high heterogeneity (I

conclusionApproximately one in four adults with diabetes experiences mental health disorders, with significant variation by ethnicity, diabetes type, diagnostic method, and socioeconomic context. Culturally tailored, integrated care approaches are needed to address disparities in mental health among people with diabetes.
