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
Background: As an early manifestation of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), sudomotor dysfunction significantly increases the risk of diabetic foot ulcer. The pathogenesis of sudomotor dysfunction is still unclear. Lower limb ischemia may be related to sudomotor dysfunction, but few studies have explored it. The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between sudomotor function and comprehensive lower limb arterial ischemia including large arteries, small arteries and microvascular in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Patients and Methods: 511 T2DM patients were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Sudomotor function was assessed qualitatively and quantitatively by Neuropad. Lower limb arterial ischemia was defined as any abnormality of the ankle brachial index (ABI), toe brachial index (TBI) or transcutaneous oxygen tension (TcPO2). Results: In this study, 75.1% of patients had sudomotor dysfunction. Compared with normal sudomotor function, patients with sudomotor dysfunction had a higher incidence of lower limb arterial ischemia (51.2% vs 36.2%, Conclusion: Lower limb arterial ischemia is an independent risk factor of sudomotor dysfunction. Especially below the ankle (BTA) small arteries and microvascular ischemia may also be involved in the occurrence of sudomotor disorders.
