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

Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is a serious degenerative chronic joint disease. However, there are few quantitative syntheses of KBD prevalence studies. In this study, an initial systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to study the prevalence of KBD in China. Five databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), WanFang Data, and the China Science-Technology Journal Database (VIP)) were searched by performing an overall search method to identify studies of KBD prevalence in China that were published from the inception of the database to May 30, 2022. The risk of bias was assessed with the standardized risk of bias tool. Heterogeneity was assessed with the I
