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
We studied the prevalence and effects of host genetic polymorphisms for the three AIDS restriction genes (ARGs) namely CCR2-64I, SDF1-3'A and MCP1-2518 G/A for HIV infection and progression to AIDS using PCR-RFLP analysis on a total of 568 HIV seronegative serum samples collected from a specific high risk and young population hailing from the seven Northeastern states of India (n = 346), West Bengal (n = 96) and Gorkha population (n = 101). In addition, 181 HIV seropositive cases of which 92 inpatient cases in a large tertiary care hospital located at Kolkata were included in the study. HIV prevalence in our study group was 0.52 %. Four cases seroconverted, 25 cases progressed to AIDS and 05 died during the follow up period of 41 months. The genotype percentage of CCR2-64I, SDF1-3'A and MCP1-2518 G/A in the Northeastern states were 18.5, 40.3 and 54 % respectively in the seronegative population. Allele frequencies for SDF1-3'A in Northeastern states were significantly higher as compared to the Gorkha (21 %) and the North Indian population (24 %). Relative Hazard values were more than 0.9 for progression to AIDS and death. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis using Cox proportional regression model did not reveal any significant survival benefit (p value <0.05) for any of the 3 ARGs individually or in combination either to seroconversion or disease progression. This is the first study on host genetic polymorphism amongst the Eastern, Northeastern and Gorkha regions in India. We are also the first to report the MCP1-2518 G/A polymorphism in India that is known to increase the rate of neuropsychological impairment (NPI) in AIDS patients.
