Article in Health services management research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

methodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted in four cities, seventeen hospitals, across Iran, with a sample of 365 international Muslim medical tourists.
resultsMean expectation score of the respondents was 3.95 ± 1.43. Being in the 25-34 age group (aOR = 2.65; CI 95%: 2.14-3.16), being married (aOR = 2.09; CI 95%: 1.46-2.72), having completed secondary education (aOR = 2.14; CI 95%: 1.26-3.02), belonging to a high-income socioeconomic background (aOR = 1.69; CI 95%: 1.06-2.33), coming from Iraq (aOR = 3.08; CI 95%: 2.12-4.04), being Shia (aOR = 2.83; CI 95%: 2.00-3.67), receiving information by recommendation as a source for travel decision (aOR = 3.02; CI 95%: 1.82-4.22), traveling with family or relatives (aOR=2.16; CI 95%: 1.42-2.90), receiving medical service of cosmetic surgery (aOR = 1.57; CI 95%: 1.22-1.92) and cardiovascular therapy (aOR = 2.33; CI 95%: 1.23-3.43), and traveling one or two times in the past (aOR = 2.33; CI 95%: 1.00-3.66) significantly increased the expectations on halal-friendly healthcare services.
