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

Four hundred and forty two adult individuals of Estonian nationality were examined in different regions of Estonia for the C282Y and H63D HFE mutations to determine the allele and genotype frequencies. The sample consisted only of those people whose at least four grandparents were born in Estonia, and have lived settled in the same region. The study was carried out using the PCR technique and restriction analysis for C282Y and H63D mutations respectively. For the C282Y mutation the frequency of heterozygotes was 6.6% and homozygotes 0.2%, giving allele frequency 0.035. The allele frequency for the H63D mutation was 0.136, and the frequency of homo- and hetero-zygotes 1.6% and 24.0% respectively.
