Current modalities of sickle cell disease management.
Review in Blood science (Baltimore, Md.), 2020. 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
Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects nearly 100,000 people in the United States of America and the sickle gene is present in approximately 8% of black Americans. Among Africans, the prevalence of sickle cell trait (heterozygosity) is as high as 30%. While SCD occurs among varying racial and ethnic groups, it is more commonly prevalent in individuals of African or African-American descent. This inherited blood disorder causes varying symptoms and complications among affected children and adults and early diagnosis and treatment are essential to help reduce mortality rates. Because there is no cure for SCD, management is vital to survival. Hence, there are different approaches in use to aid those living with SCD; thus, this paper provides insight into the current methods that are implemented in the management and maintenance of this disease.
