Article in Health science reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background and Aims: Incidence of diabetes is increasing at a younger age, causing a significant economic burden, especially in developing countries. This study was conducted to find the sociodemographic distribution of diabetes in young adults, along with clinical, laboratory, and treatment strategies used. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted including all young patients (20-39 years) diagnosed with diabetes in a tertiary center of Nepal over 1 year duration. Patients with secondary diabetes, such as gestational diabetes, were excluded. Sociodemographic, clinical, relevant laboratory parameters, and treatment-related data were collected and analyzed using SPSS. Results: There were a total of 133 patients, with a mean age of 31.40 ± 5.4 years. 82% were symptomatic at diagnosis, with polyuria as the most common symptom. The mean duration of diabetes was 5.4 ± 0.4 years, and 24% of the patients were insulin dependent. Family history of diabetes was present in 46 (34.60%). A total of 69 (52%) patients had some sort of complications, with the majority showing neuropathies. 31 (23%) developed ketoacidosis. Conclusions: Based on this study, we discovered that the presence of ketoacidosis is associated with patients with diabetes in the lower age group, relatively lower BMI, and heralds the T1DM group on the basis of clinical profile.
