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

Purpose: In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we investigated the effect and side effects of Citrullus colocynthis on glycemic factors and lipid profile in diabetic patients. Methods: We systematically searched English and Persian databases from inception till August 2021 using Medical Subject Headings (MeSH). Two authors independently extracted data and assessed the quality of studies. The standardized mean differences were pooled using fixed-effect models, and statistical heterogeneity was assessed using the I squared (I²) index. Results: Of the 321 articles searched in the databases, 136 related articles were screened, 14 relevant full-text articles were assessed for eligibility; finally, four articles were included in the study, three articles were entered into the meta-analysis. The results of the meta-analysis indicated that Conclusions: The meta-analysis results showed that Supplementary information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s40200-022-01045-9.
