Hemoglobin Alpha Chain Variant Zara Associated With Familial Asymptomatic Hypoxemia.
Article in Journal of hematology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Numerous hemoglobin (Hb) gene mutations have been identified, leading to a spectrum of phenotypes ranging from asymptomatic carrier states to complicated hemolytic anemias. We report a rare case of asymptomatic hypoxemia in a father and his teenage daughter both of whom were found to be carriers of Hb gene variant Zara. Workup for alternative cardiovascular causes of hypoxemia was unremarkable. Further sequencing of the alpha globin locus showed both individuals to be heterozygous for the Hb Zara c.274C>A (p.Leu92Ile) variant of unknown significance in the alpha2-globin gene. This is the first documented association of this Hb variant with familial asymptomatic hypoxemia, highlighting the importance of evaluating for hemoglobinopathies in patients with reduced oxygen saturation.
