Sublingual varices as predictor of factors associated with cardiovascular diseases: A systematic review with meta-analysis.

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
objectiveSublingual varicose veins are variations of normality that appear more prominent during aging. The systematic review aim to investigate sublingual varicose veins frequency in patients exposed to systemic and environmental exposed factors linked to cardiovascular diseases.
methodsThis systematic review was based on the PECO strategy, and the PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Embase and Grey Literature library were searched for publications examining the association between sublingual varicose veins and systemic and environmental exposed factors linked to cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and leg varices. A meta-analysis was conducted using random-effects models. This review included 11 studies with a total of 2,272 patients with sublingual varicosity and systemic exposed factors linked to cardiovascular diseases. The quality assessment was improved by Newcastle and Ottawa Scales (NOS).
resultsConsistent results were observed across all systemic and environmental exposed factors linked to cardiovascular diseases subgroups. We found association between sublingual varicose veins and hypertension [p = 0.0002; 95%IC2.90 [1.66-5.06]; I
conclusionPatients exposed to exposed factors that affect blood vessels showed a higher prevalence of sublingual varicose veins. These findings emphasize the importance of recognizing oral signs underlying systemic diseases. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION: PROSPERO CRD42023397166.
