HFE and non-HFE hemochromatosis.
Review in International journal of hematology, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is a disorder of iron metabolism in which enhanced absorption of dietary iron causes increased iron accumulation in the liver, heart, and pancreas. Most individuals with HH are homozygous for a point mutation in the HFE gene, leading to a C282Y substitution in the HFE protein. The function of HFE protein is unknown, but the available evidence suggests that it acts in association with beta2-microglobulin and transferrin receptor 1 to regulate iron uptake from plasma transferrin by the duodenum, the proposed mechanism by which body iron levels are sensed. The identification of HFE has established the foundation for a better understanding of the molecular and cellular biology of iron homeostasis and its altered regulation in HH. Additionally, the ability to accurately diagnose iron overload disorders has been strengthened, family screening has been improved, and evaluation of patients with other forms of liver disease complicated by moderate-to-severe iron overload is now possible. However, the role of HFE testing in generalized population screening for HH is still controversial. Recently, other forms of HH have been described that are not related to HFE but are due to mutations in genes coding iron transport proteins.
