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
Objective: The plant known as Materials and Methods: The present study was carried out in a prospective observational manner at the Mogadishu-Somalia Turkish Training and Research Hospital. Data were gathered over a period of three years, from January 2021 to December 2023. The study encompassed all stroke patients who presented at the hospital's emergency department who had the habit of khat consumption and did not have previous risk factors of stroke. The study included a sample size of 52 patients. Results: The study involved 52 male patients who were diagnosed with acute stroke. Among the participants, 75% (n = 39) were aged between 18 and 39 years, while 25% (n = 13) were aged between 40 and 64 years. The findings indicate that hemorrhagic stroke was the prevailing stroke type, accounting for 88.5% (n = 46) of cases, while ischemic stroke accounted for only 11.5% (n = 6). All 52 participants in the study reported using khat. In addition to the act of chewing khat, it was found that 70% (n = 36) of the participants had been using khat for a period exceeding 5 years; none of the participants exhibited any additional risk factors for stroke. Conclusion: The findings of our study indicate that
