Article in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Insulin gene mutations have been identified to cause monogenic diabetes, and most of which developed permanent neonatal diabetes at young ages before 6 months of age in humans. To establish an animal model of permanent diabetes, we performed genome editing using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. We generated a novel Kuma mutant mice with p.Q104del in the Insulin2 (Ins2) gene in a BRJ background that exhibits a severe immune deficiency. Kuma mutant mice are non-obese and developed hyperglycemia from 3 weeks after birth in both males and females, which are inherited in a dominant mode. Kuma mutant mice displayed reduced insulin protein levels from 3-weeks-old, which seem to be caused by the low stability of the mutant insulin protein. Kuma mutant showed a reduction in islet size and islet mass. Electron microscopic analysis revealed a marked decrease in the number and size of insulin granules in the beta-cells of the mutant mice. Hyperglycemia of the mutant can be rescued by insulin administration. Our results present a novel insulin mutation that causes permanent early-onset diabetes, which provides a model useful for islet transplantation studies.
