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
backgroundCardiovascular disease (CVD) presents a significant burden among middle-aged adults (aged 35-64). Diet high in sugar-sweetened beverages is a notable CVD risk factor.
methodsUsing Global Burden of Disease data from 1990 to 2019, age-standardized rates (ASRs) and average annual percentage change of ASRs were used to describe this burden and its changing trend.
resultsIn 2019, global CVD-related ASR (per 100 000) of deaths attributable to sugar-sweetened beverages in middle-aged adults reached 1.91 (95% uncertainty interval [UI], 1.07-2.63) compared with 2.75 (95% UI, 1.76-3.59) in 1990. The global ASR of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) reached 69.71 in 2019 (95% UI, 38.38-96.36) compared with 97.98 (95% UI, 62.29-128.39) in 1990. Men had more than twice the deaths and DALYs as women. Low and low-middle sociodemographic index regions exhibited a higher burden of DALYs and deaths. In 2019, India and China had the highest numbers of deaths and DALYs and the Solomon Islands and Afghanistan recorded the highest ASRs of deaths and DALYs. A negative linear correlation was observed between sociodemographic index and ASRs of deaths (
conclusionsGlobally, sugar-sweetened beverages have contributed to a substantial increase in DALYs and deaths related to CVD in middle-aged adults over the past 30 years, especially among men and in low sociodemographic index countries.
