1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 (DM) is a metabolic disease that puts the individual at immune-suppression state. The present study aims to detect the burden of intestinal parasites and associated risk factors among diabetic patients in a case-control study. Stool samples from 100 diabetic patients, and 100 non-diabetic controls attending Beni-Suef University Hospital were collected and processed by direct smear examination, concentration technique, permanent staining by modified Ziehl-Neelsen and modified trichrome stains, and culture on nutrient agar plates. The overall prevalence of intestinal parasites was 38%; higher in diabetic patients (44%) than control group (32%) with non-statistical significance. The most predominant intestinal parasites detected among diabetics were
