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
Objective: Excessive fear of progression can affect the mental health, social function, and wellbeing of patients with chronic diseases. This study investigated the fear of progression (FoP) and the socio-demographic and clinical predictors among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Method: The present study is a multi-center cross-sectional study. Inpatients with T2DM were recruited by a multi-stage convenience sampling method from the department of endocrinology in 5 tertiary hospitals in Southwest China. 459 T2DM patients were consecutively enrolled. Socio-demographic, clinical data, and answers to the fear of progression questionnaire (FoP-Q) were collected. Results: 385 patients with complete data were eligible. The average score of FoP-Q-SF was 26.84 and 23.1% of patients reached the dysfunctional fear of progression criterion. The greatest fears were worrying about "disease progression," "the adverse reactions of medication," and "relying on strangers for activities of daily living." Health education ( Conclusion: Early assessment of the fear of progression was imperative to identify dysfunctional fear of progression in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Meanwhile, the meaning of these predictors for strengthening healthcare professions education and patients self-management might help healthcare givers timely perform related interventions and help patients reduce their fear of progression thus actively cooperate with T2DM treatments.
