  Fig. 2. Network Meta-Analysis of TG: Network Plot, League Table, and SUCRA Plot. A presents the Network Plot. The size of the nodes is proportional to the sample size of each intervention, and the thickness of the lines corresponds to the number of available studies. B displays the pairwise comparison League Table, where the estimated effect size differences (SMD with 95% CI) represent the difference between the intervention on the top and the intervention on the right. C illustrates the SUCRA Plot, where the size of the area under the curve indicates the effectiveness of each intervention
