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

aimTo test the feasibility of a group-based psychological intervention for young adults with type 1-diabetes and elevated diabetes distress.

methodsYoung adults (18-30 years), screened for diabetes distress using the Type 1 Diabetes Distress Scale (T1-DDS), participated in six group sessions led by a psychologist and a diabetes nurse. The intervention was based on Acceptance and Commitment Theory (ACT) and focused on reducing diabetes distress. Feasibility was assessed through trial recruitment, intervention completion, intervention acceptability and preliminary estimates of effect size (T1-DDS, HbA

resultsDuring May 2023-December 2023, 22 young adults were recruited; 20 completed the intervention with high acceptability. Participants (85% women, mean age 23.6 years) showed significant reductions in diabetes distress (T1-DDS: 1.2, p < 0.0001). No changes were found in HbA

conclusionsThe intervention is feasible and acceptable with encouraging diabetes distress improvements. Minor adjustments will optimize the intervention for the upcoming RCT.
