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
Introduction Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are devastating cerebrovascular diseases with multifactorial etiology. The role of inflammation is indisputable, and interleukins are pivotal in supporting local inflammatory pathways and endothelial dysfunction at the aneurysm wall. In the light of insufficient evidence reported in the literature, this meta-analysis was aimed to investigate the genetic linkage between IL-1β (rs16944) -511C>T polymorphisms and IAs susceptibility. Methods A comprehensive online literature review was completed using the PubMed/Medline and Web of Science databases in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. "Interleukin-1β," "IL-1β," "polymorphism," "intracranial aneurysm," and "subarachnoid hemorrhage" were the main keywords. Only human case-control studies, published from 2005 to 2021, written in English or translated, were screened. In the statistical analysis, we applied the fixed- and random-effect models, according to the level of heterogeneity, to assess the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RevMan 5.0 software was used for the statistics. Results Only 4 studies were eligible, with a total of 2070 patients, 1050 of which were assigned to the study group. Combined results showed a statistically significant association between the risk of IAs and -511CC (OR=0.79, 95% CI [0.65-0.95], p=0.01), and CT (OR=0.69, 95% CI [0.58-0.82], p<0.0001; OR=0.71, 95% CI [0.55-0.93], p=0.01) allele variations, both in the fixed- and random- models. No correlation was identified for the -511TT genotype (p=0.42; p=0.78). All the texts showed a low level of publication bias. Conclusion The present meta-analysis proved a potential role of IL-1β -511CC/CT genotypes in the pathogenesis of IAs. Additional studies are imperative to explain the underlying neuroimmune mechanisms, also allowing tailoring the potential inflammatory-target therapies for IAs.
