An Introduction to Starting a Biobank.
Review in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05336851 (Emergency PanorOmic Wide Association Study in Respiratory Infectious Disease), which is not on this map. Cited by 21 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.

Abstract
The purpose of a biobank is to process, organize, and maintain various types of biospecimens that are to be utilized for both clinical and research-based services. There are different types of biobanks, so the goals of the biobank should be delineated at the outset of forming a biobank. The startup of a biobank benefits from accreditation and stringent adherence to standards of practice. Fundamental to these practices is the protection of privacy and informed consent. A budget must be developed, and sources of funding should be obtained to properly equip the designated space and personnel. The appropriate space for freezers and for biospecimen processing should be identified. Information technology is also a critical part of the biobank and effort should be expended to ensure that this aspect is effective and secure. Given the ethical concerns surrounding biospecimens, engagement with the public is also highly valuable.
