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
Introduction: Despite the effectiveness of postpartum type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) screening to detect and manage T2DM among women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), the uptake remains low, indicating the potentially low level of relevant knowledge. This study aims to identify the prevalence of postpartum T2DM screening and its associated factors. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 116 pregnant women with GDM who attended antenatal care follow-up at government health clinics in Seremban District, Negeri Sembilan. Multistage cluster sampling was performed to recruit the respondents from 6 mukims and 10 public health clinics. The data were collected using a validated and pre-tested questionnaire, with Cronbach's alpha values ranging from 0.81 to 0.95 for each section of the questionnaire. Data were collected through face-to-face interviews during the respondents' routine antenatal follow-ups for blood sugar monitoring. Results: Poor knowledge on postpartum T2DM screening (55.2%) was observed, which was significantly predicted by low educational level (AOR = 6.898, 95% CI 3.62-9.055) and low selfefficacy (AOR = 17.905, 95% CI 5.470-58.611). Conclusion: Most of the respondents had poor knowledge regarding postpartum T2DM screening, which was predicted by low education and self-efficacy. The findings highlight the need for continuous education and health promotion during antenatal follow-up targeting women with GDM with low self-efficacy and education level in order to ensure better adherence to screening.
