Cytological multimarker screening using BMCyt test in waterpipe smokers: an integrative study of cell damage, toxicological and cancer risk.
Article in Journal of genetics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Waterpipe smoking is an ancient method of tobacco smoking practiced worldwide. There is a common belief that waterpipe smoking is a safer alternative to cigarette, but many studies showed that some toxicants were associated with cancer risk, significantly higher in waterpipe smoking. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the status of waterpipe smoker's buccal cells and its cancer risk using the buccal micronucleus cytome test. Forty waterpipe smokers (noncigarette smokers) were recruited and paired by gender, age and alcoholic habits with 40 control subjects. One-thousand cells from each individual were analysed and the number of pyknotic cells (PYC), karyolitic cells (KYL), karyorrhetic cells (KHC), condensed chromatin (CC), binucleated cells (BN), basal cells (BC), nuclear buds (NBUD) and differentiated cells (DIFF) were counted. Additionally, 2000 differentiated cells were analysed counting micronucleated cells (MNi) and nuclear buds. We observed an increasing
