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

Facial appearance is hypothesized to serve as a cue to an individual's biological condition. However, the results of studies linking facial appearance with various measures of biological condition are inconclusive. Furthermore, most research has assessed the biological condition based on self-reported health or only a single health measure. This study aimed to verify if a man's facial appearance reflects his metabolic health, which was assessed based on a broad panel of physiological biomarkers. The study included 105 healthy men with a mean age of 35.42 years (SD
