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: According to the high prevalence of diabetes Mellitus (DM), as a harmful metabolic disease, the adoption of self-care (SC) behaviors along with modern medications seems necessary for diabetes Mellitus patients (DMPs). Since self-efficacy (SE) affects the quality of SC behaviors in DMPs to prevent limb amputation as one of the most common DM-related complications, the present study aimed to investigate the probable relationship between the effect of the Diabetes Management Self-Efficacy (DMSE) with limb amputation rate in DMPs. Methods: DMPs with ages of 18-65 years were selected and divided into two groups of the case (DMPs with experiences of DM ≥ 4 years and limb amputation, n = 300), and control (DMPs with no experience of limb amputation, n = 600). Data were collected through demographics, clinical checklists, and the DMSES tool, and were analyzed using SPSS (v.25). Results: The mean age of DMPs was 55.2 ± 8.2 years, and 59.3% and 40.7% of patients had type I and type II DM, respectively. A significant relationship was found between the mean of DMSES in terms of groups of the case (Mean: 60.6) and control (mean 67.7) (P = 0.001), living place, education, family background in non-close relatives, underlying disease, high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, and the type of DM. The odds ratio (OR) of amputation was also found higher in DMPs with a lower mean of DMSES OR = 1.03, CI 95%=1.01-1.04, P = 0.001). Conclusion: In this study, DMSE had a significant relationship with reducing limb amputation rate in DMPs. Furthermore, The average self-efficacy score according to gender, place of residence, education, family history in non-close relatives, underlying disease, and type of diabetes was significantly difference. It is suggested, that self-efficacy would be enhanced through systematic education in diabetes clinics.
