Hemoglobin Wayne causing a falsely elevated hemoglobin A1c.
Article in Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is an important tool for diagnosis and management of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). However, hemoglobin variants can interfere with laboratory assays and lead to inaccurate results. This study describes a patient who was found to have falsely elevated HbA1c values secondary to hemoglobin Wayne, a rare hemoglobin variant. Although hemoglobin Wayne is often clinically silent, falsely elevated HbA1c results could lead to unnecessary medical interventions that could cause patient harm. This variation in results highlights the importance of utilizing additional measurements such as glucose readings and evaluating for hemoglobin variants when results are discordant.
