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
Background: Objective: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder and a major public health concern worldwide, particularly in developing countries. Dietary habits and sleep quality are important factors influencing metabolic health and diabetes outcomes. This study aimed to compare dietary patterns and sleep disorders among obese patients with diabetes and obese individuals without diabetes. Materials and Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted in 2023 on 140 obese adults, including 70 patients with diabetes and 70 non-diabetic individuals, who attended the endocrinology subspecialty clinic of Imam Khomeini Hospital in Ahvaz, Iran. Dietary intake was assessed using a 147-item Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ), while sleep quality and daytime sleepiness were evaluated using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), respectively. Healthy, traditional, and Western dietary patterns were identified and compared between the groups. Results: No significant difference was observed in mean age between the two groups. However, diabetic participants had significantly higher body weight than non-diabetic subjects (P=0.02). Sleep quality was poor in both groups, but diabetic patients had significantly worse PSQI scores than non-diabetic individuals (13.35±1.26 vs. 9.41±0.98, P=0.001). Consumption of fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products did not differ significantly between groups, whereas intake of high-fat dairy products was significantly higher among diabetic patients (P=0.03). Adherence to the traditional and Western dietary patterns was associated with a 4.42-fold and 3.63-fold increased risk of type 2 diabetes, respectively, while no significant association was found for the healthy dietary pattern. Conclusion: Obese patients with diabetes exhibit poorer sleep quality and less favorable dietary habits than obese non-diabetic individuals. These findings highlight the importance of promoting healthy dietary patterns and improving nutritional awareness to support diabetes prevention and management.
