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
Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is the second most common form of neurodegenerative dementia in elderly people, following Alzheimer's disease. Only three genes, SNCA (α-synuclein), APOE (apolipoprotein E), and GBA (glucosylceramidase), have been convincingly demonstrated to be associated with DLB. Here, we applied whole-genome sequencing to blood samples from 61 DLB patients and 45 cognitively normal controls. We used accumulation of candidate mutations to detect novel DLB-associated genes. Subsequent single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping and association studies in a large number of samples from Japanese individuals revealed novel heterozygous variants in MFSD3 (rs143475431, c.888T>A:p.C296*; n = 5,421, p = 0.00063) and MRPL43 (chr10:102746730, c.241A>C:p.N81H; n = 4,782, p = 0.0029). We further found that the MFSD3 variant increased plasma levels of butyrylcholinesterase (n = 1,206, p = 0.029). We believe that our findings will contribute to the understanding of DLB and provide insight into its pathogenic mechanism for future studies.
