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
The results of studies investigating the associations between GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms and anti-tuberculosis drug-induced hepatotoxicity (ADIH) risk exhibit much controversy. Therefore, a meta-analysis was performed in order to examine the associations between GST variants and ADIH risk. A total of 451 relevant studies were identified through the digital medical databases Medline, Embase, and CBM published up to October 2012. Thirteen individual case-control studies were eventually recruited for GSTM1 null polymorphism (including 951 ADIH cases, 1,922 controls) and 12 studies for GSTT1 null polymorphism (847 cases, 1,811 controls). Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were appropriately calculated from fixed-effects or random-effects models. Subgroup analyses were stratified by ethnicity and different treatment combinations. The overall ORs of relevant studies that exhibited elevated ADIH risk was significantly associated with GSTM1 null genotypes (OR = 1.36, 95% CI 1.04-1.79), but for the GSTT1 polymorphism, no difference was found (OR = 0.98, 95% CI 0.82-1.18). In the subgroup analyses, the pooled results showed that GSTM1 null allele carriers had a significant association with ADIH risk in East Asians and the patients who used isoniazid (INH) + rifampicin (RMP) + pyrazinamide (PZA) + ethambutol (EMB), or + streptomycin (SM) (HRZES), but the opposite result was observed for patients using HR. Moreover, the GSTT1 null genotype evaluated the susceptibility to ADIH for tuberculosis using HRZ. This meta-analysis provides evidence that there may be an increased risk of ADIH in individuals with null genotypes of GSTM1 in the total population, especially East Asians and patients receiving HRZE or HRZES. However, polymorphisms of the GSTT1 null genotype seem to have no association with susceptibility to ADIH, except for patients receiving HRZ.
