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
Epidemiological studies have reported inconsistent findings on the association between the V Leiden G1691A mutation and sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) in Italian population. The aim of this meta-analysis was to clarify this association. PubMed, Embase, and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) were searched up to April 1, 2015. We used STATA12.0 to calculate summary odds ratios (ORs) with 95 % confidence intervals (CIs). Four studies including 958 patients were identified. Pooled data showed no significant association between V Leiden G1691A mutation and risk of SSNHL in Italian population: A vs. G (OR = 1.660, 95 % CI 0.428-6.446, P OR = 0.464) and AG vs. GG (OR = 1.680, 95 % CI 0.422-6.688, P OR = 0.462). The present meta-analysis suggests that V Leiden G1691A mutation is not significantly associated with increased risk of SSNHL disease in Italian population. Further large and well-designed studies are needed to confirm this association.
