1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundHemoglobin H (Hb H) disease can be caused by compound heterozygosity for two different mutations or from homozygotes for mutations, and conventional genetic methods may lead to misdiagnosis when Hb H disease is combined with a rare β-thalassemia.

methodsHematology parameters and hemoglobin electrophoresis analysis, gap-polymerase chain reaction (gap-PCR) and reverse dot-blot hybridization (RDB-PCR) were employed to identify common α-thalassemia and Hb H disease. Rare β-thalassemia mutations were detected by DNA sequencing.

resultsHematological analysis and hemoglobin electrophoresis revealed a mild anemia α

conclusionWe reported a rare -90 (C>T) (HBB: c.-140 C>T) mutation combined with the --
