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
Individuals who are higher-weight and low-income may disproportionately experience weight and income stigmas in healthcare experiences compared to lower-weight, higher-income individuals. The ways that weight and income stigmas interact in healthcare should be better understood in order to provide better, less stigmatizing care to higher-weight, low-income patients. This study assesses how patients manage stigmatizing experiences in both healthcare and everyday experiences and how that impacts health seeking and stigma management behaviors through semi-structured interviews with 11 higher-weight (Body Mass Index ≥30), low-income adults (≥18 years of age) in an Atlantic Canadian province. Participants took part in two interviews that focused on healthcare experiences and both positive and negative places/spaces. The two face-to-face interviews for each participant (total 21 interviews) were audio-recorded and professionally transcribed verbatim. The transcripts were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify recurring concepts and patterns within the data. Two major themes emerged from the data,
