Management of diabetes in resource-poor settings.
Review in Clinical medicine (London, England), 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Diabetes mellitus is an emerging problem in the developing world. In sub-Saharan Africa, for example, the incidence and prevalence of the disease is unknown, diagnosis is often made on the basis of poor information and a loosely defined set of criteria, and access to oral hypoglycaemic agents and insulin is patchy and expensive. The best system of management is currently unclear and this article explores lessons learnt, good practice and the applicability of the structured 'directly observed treatment, short course' (DOTS) approach (the current best care system for tuberculosis disease management in resource-poor settings) to the management of chronic diseases such as diabetes.
