Does antioxidant therapy influence every aspect of quality of life?
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
To present problems that might severely impact the conclusions drawn by the authors of an article on antioxidant treatment in chronic pancreatitis (World J Gastroenterol 2010; 16: 4066-4071). We analyzed and discussed this paper by Shah et al, and found that promising as it is, this study has some methodological shortcomings, such as: cross-sectional nature of the study, lack of initial evaluations of quality of life and regular follow-ups to determine the dynamics and real directions of changes in quality of life. We therefore concluded that the results of the study by Shah et al are biased and, although very promising, should not be considered as scientifically relevant.
