Article in Cureus, 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.

methodsThis cross-sectional study analyzed anonymized medical records of 18,606 patients presenting with abdominal pain who underwent the
resultsOverall prevalence was 29.4% (n = 5,464). Females showed a higher prevalence (30.4%) than males (26.7%) with a statistically significant difference (χ² = 24.5, df = 1, p < 0.001; OR = 1.05, 95% CI: 1.03-1.07). Age-specific analysis revealed the highest burden among individuals <21 years (37.9%), followed by those aged 21 to 50 years (28.7%), while the lowest prevalence was among participants >50 years (24.4%). The association between age category and infection status was highly significant (χ² = 159.4, df = 2, p < 0.001).
