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
Diabetics have around 2-4 times increased risk of coronary artery disease(CAD) and it is the most important cause of mortality in these patients. This study was carried out to compare the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of MPI-SPECT among diabetics and non-diabetics in the Indian population. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis retrospective study included 261 patients; 213 males and 48 females, with 75 diabetic and 186 non-diabetic patients. Only type II diabetics and non-diabetic patients were included in the study. Only patients who had coronary angiography (CAG) done within 6 months of the stress
resultsConsidering coronary angiography as gold standard with ≥ 50% coronary stenosis as a cut off criteria for significant stenosis the sensitivity and specificity respectively, of myocardial perfusion SPECT was 83% and 72% in diabetics and 81% and 69% in non-diabetic pateints (
