Serum iron is negatively correlated with the HbA1c level in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Although mainly affected by the blood glucose levels, the level of HbA1c could be influenced by other important factors, such as an iron deficiency, which is commonly found in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). However, a clinical judgment could not be established, as previous studies still reported conflicting results and lack of data regarding Indonesia. We aimed to evaluate the correlation between the serum iron and HbA1c levels in children with T1DM. This single-center cross-sectional study was conducted from February to October 2020 at Sanglah Hospital, Bali, Indonesia. Patients aged 1-18 yr were included in this study. The HbA1c and serum iron levels were evaluated in the blood samples. Spearman and partial correlation analyses were used to analyze the correlations between variables. The statistical significance was set at
