Blood oxidative stress parameters in hospital workers occupationally exposed to low doses of ionizing radiation: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
This study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the relationship between blood oxidative stress biomarkers and exposure to low-dose ionizing radiation in medical radiation workers. The researchers searched PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar for relevant studies until February 2023. They assessed the quality of the studies using the Newcastle‒Ottawa Scale (NOS) and used a random-effects model to combine the results. The I-square test was employed to assess study heterogeneity. The effect sizes were represented by standardized mean differences (proxied by Hedges' g) with a 95 % confidence interval. Out of 295 initial articles, 38 studies met the inclusion criteria for the meta-analysis. The systematic review results revealed a significant difference in blood oxidative stress biomarkers with exposure to low-dose ionizing radiation in medical radiation workers. Furthermore, the overall effect size of MDA was notably higher than that of the control group (
