Gaucher's Disease in an Adult Female: A Rare Entity.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Gaucher's disease is a rare inborn error of metabolism with an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. With over 26 million births occurring per annum, extrapolation of this figure would give us an estimated burden of 17,000 babies born with lysosomal storage disorder (LSD). Given the large population of India and the high rates of consanguineous marriage that takes place in the subcontinent, LSD might not be as rare as we perceive it to be. We report a rare occurrence of type-1 Gaucher's disease in an adult female patient born of a non-consanguineous marriage, belonging to the tropical area of Chhattisgarh, India where there is a predominance of malaria, thalassemia, and sickling. The diagnosis was challenging in this case since we needed to work out all the differential diagnoses of pancytopenia with hepatomegaly and massive splenomegaly. The key part was her medical history where there was documentation of her elder brother's death due to some mental illness of undiagnosed etiology. Being a difficult time due to coronavirus disease 2019 ( COVID-19), we were able to diagnose the patient with a bone marrow biopsy followed by glucocerebrosidase enzyme level suggestive of Gaucher's disease.
