1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Since thyroid profile is linked to genes and differing environmental factors, it is essential to evaluate the frequency of thyroid diseases in various ethnicities. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to explore the pooled prevalence of thyroid disorders in pregnant Arab women. Following the prospective registration (PROSPERO CRD42024590477), four databases (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane) were searched systematically to retrieve studies that report the prevalence of thyroid hormone disorders in pregnant Arab women. Data were synthesized using RStudio within a random effect model. Study heterogeneity and data robustness were assessed by I
