Incidence, demographic characteristics, and geographic distribution of sickle cell trait and sickle cell anemia births in Michigan, 1997-2014.
Article in Molecular genetics & genomic medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundThis study describes the incidence, demographic characteristics, and geographic distribution of sickle cell anemia (SCA) and sickle cell trait births in Michigan.
methodsMichigan newborn screening records and birth certificates (1997-2014) were used to identify sickle cell trait and SCA births, as well as demographic characteristics and mother's residential address. Incidence was calculated overall and by county.
resultsDuring the study period, there were 592 SCA births and 33,404 sickle cell trait births in Michigan. The majority of SCA (86.3%) and trait (80.2%) cases were among children who were black. Children with SCA were born in 23% of Michigan counties; children with trait were born in 93%.
conclusionCompared to SCA, sickle cell trait births occur at 50-fold greater incidence and have a substantially expanded geographic distribution. Further research is necessary to understand the most appropriate and impactful use of resources to increase the proportion of families and adults that are aware of their sickle cell trait status.
