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 aim of the present study was to integrate all the eligible studies and investigate whether the transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) gene polymorphisms (TGF-β1 T869C and TGF-β1 T29C) are correlated with postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) risk. PMOP is a common skeletal disease and several genetic factors play an important role in the development and progression of PMOP. Significant associations between TGF-β1 gene polymorphisms (TGF-β1 T869C and TGF-β1 T29C) and PMOP risk have been reported; however, some of these results are controversial. A systematic online search was performed using PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library to identify case-control studies investigating the relationship between TGF-β1 T869C and TGF-β1 T29C polymorphisms and the susceptibility of PMOP. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was calculated to assess the associations, and subgroup meta-analyses were performed according to the ethnicity of the study populations. Eight studies involving 1851 cases and 2247 controls met the inclusion criteria after assessment by 2 reviewers. Overall, there were significant associations between TGF-β1 T869C and TGF-β1 T29C polymorphisms and PMOP (TGF-β1 T869C—C vs T: OR = 1.18, 95% CI = 1.02-1.36, P = 0.030; CC vs TT: OR = 1.38, 95% CI = 1.01-1.88, P = 0.042; CC vs CT/TT: OR = 1.39, 95% CI = 1.09-1.76, P = 0.008; TGF-β1 T29C—CT vs TT: OR = 1.25, 95% CI = 1.02-1.53, P = 0.032; CT/CC vs TT: OR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.02-1.84, P = 0.035). In the subgroup analysis of ethnicity, significant association was observed between TGF-β1 T869C polymorphism and PMOP risk in Asian population (C vs T: OR = 1.18, 95% CI = 1.01-1.38, P = 0.043; CC vs TT: OR = 1.41, 95% CI = 1.01-1.97, P = 0.047; CT/CC vs TT: OR = 1.31, 95% CI = 1.03-1.66, P = 0.026; CC vs CT/TT: OR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.03-1.75, P = 0.028); however, there was no significant association between TGF-β1 T869C polymorphism and PMOP risk in Caucasian population. With regard to TGF-β1 T29C polymorphism, significant association was also observed in Asian population (CT vs TT: OR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.07-1.75, P = 0.013; CT/CC vs TT: OR = 1.54, 95% CI = 1.16-2.05, P = 0.003), while there was no significant association in Caucasian population. The TGF-β1 T869C and TGF-β1 T29C polymorphisms may be involved in susceptibility to PMOP, particular in Asian patients.
