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 work studied and compared the dynamics of changes in the course of hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and somatized disorders in Ukrainian population, in the 1st period before war (October 2021 - February 2022) and 2nd period during the war (March -July 2022). The choice of the study of the above-mentioned nosology is due, first of all, to the increase in cases of referrals to outpatient doctors regarding hypertensive crises, the increase in the frequency of patients' complaints about the lability of glycemic indicators during routine monitoring of glucose levels with ambulatory glucometers, the appearance of chronic pain syndrome of unspecified pathology with the beginning of war events.
methods272 people were examined in Mykolaiv Region (Ukraine). The patients were divided into three clinical groups: 1st group - 90 people patients with arterial hypertension; 2nd group - 92 people with type 2 diabetes; the 3rd group - 90 people with somatiform disorders.
resultsIn the patients of the 1st group during the 2nd period, amount of people with hypertension of the 1st stage increased in 1.8 times (p = 0.0412), with 2nd stage hypertension increased in 2 times (p = 0.0491) and 3rd stage hypertension increased in 2.5 times (p = 0.0391); somatized disorders in 3rd group also increased in 4.1 times (p = 0.001 < 0.05); in 2nd group recorded an increase in HbA1c by 0.99 ± 0.57 mmol/l (p = 1.795e-07 < 0.05), in comparison with the indicators for the 1st observation period.
conclusionsThe war events in Ukraine not only changed the life of every Ukrainian, but also had a significant impact on the dynamics and structure of chronic somatic diseases, in particular due to an increase in patient referrals for hypertensive crises, exacerbations of type 2 diabetes, somatized disorders, and chronic pain syndrome of unknown etiology. Considering these results, it is important to increase the equipment of regional primary care centers with antihypertensive, hypoglycemic and sedative drugs.
