Autopsy relevance determining hemochromatosis: Case report.
Article in Medicine, 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
rationaleHemochromatosis is a disorder, associated with an abnormal accumulation of iron leading to toxic organ damage. Clinical symptoms develop during a long period of time, thus, determining accidental or late diagnosis, usually when complications are evident. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 53-year-old man was brought to the emergency unit with symptoms of hypovolemic shock without any apparent cause, which ultimately led to multiple organ failure, severe metabolic acidosis. DIAGNOSES: The final diagnosis of hemochromatosis was determined after the autopsy.
interventionsAbnormal findings included a black-grayish pancreas, without any surrounding tissue reaction, and a dilated congestive cardiomyopathy. Histological findings revealed significant hemosiderin deposits in the internal organs, which were more distinct in the pancreas, liver, and kidneys. OUTCOMES: Patient death in less than 12 hours. LESSONS: The necessity of a genetic examination after the autopsy, regarding this case was undeniable, especially focusing on the first-degree relatives, helping to diagnose and prescribe an adequate and early treatment.
