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
Objective: Uric acid (UA), a known danger signal released from injured cells, is a valuable sign of inflammation. We aimed to evaluate the association of serum UA levels before the start of conditioning regimens with the risk of hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) development after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Materials and Methods: Two hundred and twenty-two children who underwent allogeneic HSCT at the Pediatric BMT Unit of Hacettepe University between 2000 and 2014 were included in this retrospective study. Serum UA levels were measured before conditioning as an indicator of the pre-transplant inflammatory status of the patients. Patients with and without a diagnosis of SOS were compared regarding primary diagnosis, previously described risk factors for SOS, and pre-conditioning serum UA. Results: SOS was diagnosed in 42 patients who had higher pre-conditioning serum UA levels compared to those who did not. Pre-transplant serum creatinine, gamma-glutamyl transferase, bilirubin, ferritin, and C-reactive protein levels did not differ significantly among patients with and without SOS; however, serum albumin was lower in the patients who developed SOS. Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that a pre-conditioning UA level higher than 3.32 mg/dL was predictive of SOS. When applied to a multivariate model, only pre-conditioning UA and albumin levels remained significant risk factors for SOS (UA: odds ratio [OR], 2.54; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.26-5.12, p=0.009; albumin: OR, 0.45, 95% CI, 0.22-0.95, p=0.037). Conclusion: Our results suggest that pre-conditioning serum UA is an independent risk factor for SOS, and it might be used as an early predictor of hepatic SOS together with previously described clinical and laboratory parameters.
