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

This study aims to assess the impact of 8-h time-restricted eating (TRE) combined with a calorie-restricted diet (CRD) on weight, insulin resistance (IR), and metabolic factors in overweight/obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). A total of 93 participants were randomly assigned to the TRE or the usual care group, both of whom were prescribed 1200-1500 kcal/day. The TRE group consumed all calories within an 8-h window, while the usual care group maintained their usual eating patterns. Assessments were administered at baseline, week 8, and week 16. At 16 weeks, both groups showed significant weight reductions from baseline: -7.47 kg in the TRE group and -4.38 kg in the usual care group (between-group difference -3.09 kg,
