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
backgroundNational survey documented that none of the Indian state is free from iodine deficiency (ID). Hence, the study was conducted with the objective to assess prevalence of goiter and associated factors among pregnant mothers (PMs) in a backward district of Indian state, Rajasthan.
methodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted during January to March 2015. Multistage random sampling was utilized to select PMs. A total of 1,183 villages were enlisted with their respective population, and 30 villages were selected using population proportionate to size sampling. Subjects were included from a cluster till the numbers reached to 17. PMs were clinically examined for goiter by palpation method. Casual urine (
resultsThe prevalence of goiter was found to be 14.2% (95% CI; 11.2-17.2). Goiter prevalence did not significantly differ with respect to trimesters of pregnancy (
conclusionThe study population is in transition phase from mild ID (goiter prevalence 14.1%) to sufficiency (median UIC 174 μg/L).
