Translation and Psychometric Evaluation of the Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire in Hebrew (H-DSMQ) for Adults With Type 2 Diabetes in Israel.

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
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a growing global health concern, including in Israel. Effective Diabetes self-management (DSM) is critical for achieving glycemic targets and preventing complications. While several tools exist to assess DSM, none have been translated for Hebrew-speaking populations. This study aimed to translate the Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ) into Hebrew (H-DSMQ) and evaluate its psychometric properties. The DSMQ was translated into Hebrew using a standard forward-backward translation procedure. A convenience sample of 220 community-dwelling adults with T2D in Israel was recruited via PANEL4ALL. Internal consistency was tested with Cronbach's α. Construct validity was examined via Confirmatory Factor Analysis and known-groups validity, and criterion validity through correlations between H-DSMQ scores, HbA1c, and BMI. The H-DSMQ construct validity was supported by CFA. In addition, known-groups validity was established, with participants with less than 7% reporting significantly higher self-management in glucose monitoring, dietary control/nutrition management, and healthcare use compared to those with above 7.1% HbA1c levels. Criterion validity was demonstrated by significant negative correlations between HbA1c and healthcare use/glucose monitoring, and between BMI and nutrition management/physical activity. The reliability of the H-DSMQ subscales ranged from poor (healthcare use, α = 0.461) to good (physical activity, α = 0.83). The H-DSMQ is a reliable and valid tool for clinical and research purposes to assess self-care behaviors related to blood glucose management in Hebrew-speaking adults with T2D. The H-DSMQ may support nurses by encouraging constructive and comprehensive dialog for assessing DSM.
