Association of SIX1/SIX6 locus polymorphisms with regional circumpapillary retinal nerve fibre layer thickness: The Nagahama study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
SIX1 and SIX6 are glaucoma susceptibility genes. Previous reports indicate that the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs33912345 in SIX6 is associated with inferior circumpapillary retinal nerve fibre layer (cpRNFL) thickness (cpRNFLT). Although the region of visual field defect in glaucoma patients is directly related to cpRNFL thinning, a detailed sector analysis has not been performed in genetic association studies. In the present study, we evaluated 26 tagging SNPs in the SIX1/SIX6 locus ±50 kb region in a population of 2,306 Japanese subjects with 4- and 32-sector cpRNFLT analysis. While no SNPs showed a significant association with cpRNFLT in the 4-sectored analysis, the finer 32-sector assessment clearly showed a significant association between rs33912345 in the SIX1/SIX6 locus with inferior cpRNFL thinning at 292.5-303.8° (β = -4.55, P = 3.0 × 10
