1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a group of metabolic abnormalities that include disturbed glucose metabolism, dyslipidemia, abdominal obesity, and arterial hypertension. Nutritional and lifestyle modifications have increased the risk of cardiometabolic disorders among adolescents. Studies conducted in various parts of India have shown a wide range of prevalence among adolescents aged 10-19 years. The various criteria for defining MetS have led to controversial diagnoses, providing inconsistent findings. Additionally, there is a paucity of national-level estimates on the prevalence of MetS in India. Therefore, this systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to estimate the prevalence of MetS among adolescents. A comprehensive search was conducted to identify studies that reported the prevalence of MetS among adolescents in India. The search was performed using several databases, including PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, Scopus, Medline, Web of Science, Google, and Google Scholar. Relevant data were extracted and assessed for quality using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) guidelines. To estimate the pooled prevalence and explore heterogeneity, a random effects model and I
