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
backgroundCardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most prevalent complication and the leading cause of death and disability among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Over time, diabetes-related cardiovascular disease has become more common worldwide. The aim of this study was to determine the cumulative prevalence of cardiovascular disease and associated factors among diabetic patients in Ethiopia.
objectiveThe main aim of this review was to estimate the pooled prevalence of cardiovascular disease and its associated factors among diabetic patients in Ethiopia. METHODS AND MATERIALS: This review was searched using PubMed, Google, and Google Scholar search engines, and was accessed using medical subject heading (MeSH) terms for studies based in Ethiopia. Excel was used to extract the data. With a random-effects model, STATA Version 14 was used for all statistical analyses. The studies' heterogeneity and funnel plot were both examined. The study domain and authors' names were used in the subgroup analysis.
resultsIn this systematic review, 12 studies totaling 2,953 participants were included. The estimated overall prevalence of cardiovascular disease among diabetic patients in Ethiopia was 37.26% (95% CI: 21.05, 53.47, I
conclusionsIn conclusion, diabetic patients face a serious public health risk from cardiovascular disease. This review found the following factors, which is independent predictors of cardiovascular disease in diabetic patients: age over 60, BMI > 24.9kg/m
