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
introductionDiabetic foot ulcers develop with deviations in the distribution of plantar pressure. It is difficult to interpret any alteration in plantar pressure under different conditions of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The aim of this study was to gain a better insight into the variations in plantar pressure with increased duration of diabetes.
methodsPlantar pressure was examined in 1196 participants with or without T2DM. Subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) were assigned to control groups, and those with T2DM were divided into five groups according to diabetes duration (< 2 years, 2-5 years, 5-10 years, 10-15 years, and > 15 years). The clinical characteristics, plantar peak pressure, and pressure-time integral (PTI) were compared among the seven study groups, and factors associated with peak pressure and the PTI were analyzed.
resultsAt the hallux, peak pressure exhibited an upward trend in patients with T2DM within 5 years of diabetes duration, followed by a distinct downward slope with further progression of the disease (trend analysis, p < 0.05). An uneven distribution of peak pressure was found at other locations, but this unevenness was ultimately lower than that in the two control groups (p < 0.05). No obvious trend was noted for PTI among patients with different diabetes duration; however, those with diabetes for > 10 years manifested a significantly sharper increase in the PTI at the metatarsus (11.63 Ns/cm
conclusionsThere would appear to be an association between longer diabetes duration and decreased peak pressure for the hallux, suggesting that individuals with diabetes for > 10 years will have an increased PTI for the metatarsus and heel. The reduced pressure on the hallux is believed to be transferred to the metatarsus. Age, BMI, and VPT are distinct risk factors of abnormal plantar pressure.
