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
backgroundMachismo and Marianismo are social constructs that influence individuals' behaviors in society. These behaviors can negatively impact decisions about healthcare, potentially increasing the risk of type 2 diabetes.
objectiveAnalyze the relationship between Machismo, Marianismo beliefs, and the risk of Type 2 Diabetes in Indigenous Mexican adults.
methodsA cross-sectional study focusing on Nahua and Totonaca Indigenous people from the communities of Ahuacatlán and Huehuetla, in the northeastern and north of the State of Puebla. The study was conducted between March and June 2019. The study employed the Male Norms Conformity Inventory, the Marianism Belief Scale, and the American Diabetes Association Diabetes Risk Calculator.
resultsA total of 491 people participated. The average age of participants was 39.5 (SD = 7.0) years. Machismo and Marianismo were significantly correlated with diabetes risk. The Machismo dimensions associated with increased diabetes risk included work primacy, risk-taking, and status-seeking. The Marianismo belief dimensions linked to diabetes risk were submission to others and being virtuous and chaste.
conclusionMachismo and Marianismo, both contribute to the increased risk of Type 2 Diabetes among Indigenous Nahuas and Totonacs in Mexico. These findings are helpful to identify and evaluate such factors in at-risk individuals, enabling the future implementation of targeted interventions.
