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
backgroundThe chances of nonhealing foot ulcer among the diabetic is 10-20 times more than people without diabetes. Foot ulcer among diabetes population affects more than 40-60 million globally. There is a dearth of quality data on the factor among the diabetes patients, which hastens the progression of diabetic foot. The study aims to assess the risk factors associated with foot ulcer among the diabetics. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe study was a cross-sectional comparative study in tertiary care hospital in Maharashtra, India. The study population included 200 diabetic foot ulcer patients and 200 of their age and gender matched comparator were patients with diabetes without foot ulcers. The sampling method was stratified random sampling.
resultsThe mean age of both the groups of patients was around 54 years. Alcohol consumption, physical activity outside home, low foot care practices, irregularity of diabetic medication, and family history of diabetes among mothers were found to be factors associated with diabetes foot ulcer.
conclusionThere is a need to stratify the diabetes patients in regular care as per risk categories depending on the presence of above risk factors. This will not only prioritization of diabetes care in terms of future risk but also reduce the progression of complications like diabetes foot and resulting amputation through an active preventive intervention.
