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

Purpose: Several factors are attributed to the development of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), but its association with the ABO blood group is still unexplored. Hence, we performed a meta-analysis to examine this association. Methods: Relevant articles were obtained from various databases until April 5, 2025. All related data were extracted by two authors and summarized in a customized spreadsheet. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were computed and interpreted. Results: The pooled analysis showed homogeneity in the outcomes. Pooled ORs show that pregnant women with non-blood type O showed more significant associations than those with blood type O. Conclusion: Overall, the present meta-analysis suggests that individuals with non-blood type O have an increased risk of developing GDM compared to those with blood type O. However, further studies stratifying populations based on insulin resistance, gut microbiota, and inflammation in association with ABO and GDM development are needed to confirm these claims. Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s40200-025-01653-1.
