MIF and MMP-9 Serum Changes in Type II Diabetes and Non-Diabetic Subjects: A Short Communication.
Article in Iranian journal of pathology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
BACKGROUND &
objectiveDiabetes is a metabolic disease and is associated with failure of various organs. Macrophage migration factor (MIF) and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-9) are two of the most important factors in the pathogenesis of diabetes.
methodsIn this descriptive-analytical study, 30 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus from Hamadan Diabetes Center were selected by convenience sampling. Moreover, 30 healthy first-degree relatives and 30 unrelated non-diabetics, were examined for MMF and MMP-9 and their variations based on age, gender, body mass index (BMI) and hemoglobin A1C. RESULTS &
conclusionThe mean and standard deviation of MIF in diabetic patients, and relatives and non-relatives of diabetic patients were 592.87±78.19, 131.82±88.27 and 94.63±23.88, respectively (
