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: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) poses escalating global health threats, particularly in China, with significant maternal-fetal health risks. Effective self-management is crucial to mitigate adverse maternal-neonatal outcomes. Objective: The aim of this study was to describe the status of self-management behavior and its associated factors in pregnant women with diet-controlled GDM. Methods: A cross-sectional study recruited 160 pregnant women with diet-controlled GDM from the antenatal clinic of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from August to October 2024. Eligible participants were identified in the hospital's antenatal registration system and selected using simple random sampling based on assigned queue numbers. Data were collected through self-administered questionnaires assessing SMB, GDM knowledge, illness perception, self-efficacy, social support, and perception of care received. Data were analyzed using SPSS 27.0 with hierarchical multiple regression analysis. Results: A moderate level of SMB was observed in 45.6% of the participants ( Conclusion: These findings identify potential correlates for further nursing interventions, suggesting that tailored, culturally sensitive education, family-centered support, and multidisciplinary care may be beneficial in supporting SMB. Such efforts should prioritize reducing anxiety while fostering knowledge, self-efficacy, and social support.
