Recent advances in hemochromatosis: a 2015 update : a summary of proceedings of the 2014 conference held under the auspices of Hemochromatosis Australia.
Review in Hepatology international, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
This review focuses on iron metabolism, the genetics of hemochromatosis, current treatment protocols and various screening methods. Even though the most common form of hereditary hemochromatosis, C282Y gene mutations in the HFE gene, has been extensively studied, novel mutations in both HFE and non-HFE genes have been implicated in this disease. These have important implications for the Asia-Pacific region. In overload, deposition of iron in various body tissues leads to toxic damage. Patients commonly present with non-specific symptoms of malaise and lethargy. Biochemical, imaging and genetic testing can be carried out to confirm diagnosis. Venesection forms the mainstay of treatment and at present cascade screening of affected families is recommended over population-level screening.
