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

This study aimed to establish normative in-shoe plantar foot temperature patterns across three static postures-lying, sitting, and standing-in healthy individuals, providing a clinically relevant baseline for interpreting in-shoe thermograms in diabetic or peripheral arterial disease (PAD) populations. A single-center prospective study included 20 healthy adults (40 limbs; 22-74 years) who underwent vascular and neurological screening prior to data collection. Plantar temperature was continuously recorded using Tarsos
