The Impact of Ramadan Fasting on Endothelial Function, Cardiovascular Risk Factors, and Cardiovascular Disease.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Endothelial dysfunction, marked by reduced nitric oxide bioavailability, is a known factor in cardiovascular disorders. Prior studies have shown that dietary changes affect endothelial function and alter risk factors. Research studies have examined the possible impacts of Ramadan fasting on endothelial dysfunction. This narrative review aimed to assess the impacts of Ramadan fasting on endothelial function. We conducted a search of the PubMed and SCOPUS databases with various search terms. The review focused on research papers published in English language from 2000 to 2024. This review included sixty-six studies. Ramadan fasting elevated the levels and bioavailability of nitric oxide and improved some indicators of endothelial dysfunction. Ramadan fasting may enhance endothelial dysfunction and modify its risk factors, by promoting weight reduction and improving insulin resistance. Moreover, Ramadan fasting induced alterations in the structure, composition, abundance, and overexpression of gut microbiota. Further research is necessary to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and importance of Ramadan fasting on endothelial function and cardiovascular health.
