Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 and Objectives: APOE e4 has been linked to poor outcome following traumatic brain injury (TBI); however, the mechanisms behind this relationship are unclear. Few studies have investigated the relationship between the APOE genotype and established brain related protein biomarkers following TBI. The purpose of this study was to examine this relationship in service members and veterans (SMVs) following TBI. Methods: Participants were 209 SMVs [124 uncomplicated mild TBI (mTBI); 85 complicated mild, moderate, severe, or penetrating TBI (mod-sev TBI)] prospectively enrolled in the DVBIC-TBICoE 15-Year Longitudinal TBI Study. APOE genotyping was undertaken using non-fasting blood serum samples. Participants were divided into three groups: APOE e2+, APOE e3/e3, and APOE e4+. Results: In participants with mTBI, those with the APOE e2 allele had significantly lower levels of tau than those with APOE e4 ( Discussion: This study is the first to demonstrate APOE genotype is related to serum tau levels following a mTBI, extending prior findings to human serum following mTBI. In addition to higher serum tau levels in APOE e4 carriers, lower tau levels were observed in APOE e2 carriers, suggesting a possible protective effect.
