Gallstone disease and its correlates among patients attending teaching hospital of North India.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundGallstone disease (GSD) represents a significant burden for healthcare systems worldwide and is one of the most common disorders among patients presenting to emergency rooms with abdominal discomfort. AIM AND
objectiveThis study was aimed to find correlates (demographic, dietary, and behavioral) of GSD in patients attending teaching hospital in North India. METHODOLOGY: A case-control study was conducted from January 2013 to December 2013 among subjects attending outpatient department of general surgery in a teaching hospital. Data collection for both cases and controls was done on a self-designed pretested "interview schedule" which assessed the sociodemographic profile, personal history, medical history, comorbidities, physical examination including anthropometry, and dietary intakes. To measure the strength of association, odds ratio (OR) was calculated. Binary logistic regression was used for multivariate analysis.
resultsA total of 120 cases and the same number of age- and sex-matched controls were included in final analysis. In binary logistic regression, maximum association was seen with physical inactivity [OR 3.93, confidence interval (CI): 1.98-7.78] followed by current consumption of smokeless tobacco (OR 3.65, CI: 1.65-8.09), current smoking (OR 2.69, CI: 1.13-6.37), nonvegetarian diet (OR 3.10, CI: 1.65-5.83), and fat intake (OR 2.14, CI: 1.14-4.02). Current alcohol consumption (OR 0.90, CI: 0.41-1.98), high waist-hip ratio (OR 1.54, CI: 0.67-3.56), and intake of fruits and green leafy vegetables (OR 1.86, CI: 0.61-5.61) were not significantly associated with GSD.
conclusionPhysical inactivity, smokeless tobacco, nonvegetarian diet, current smoking, high fat intake, and family history were found to be risk factors for the development of GSD.
