Article in Medical archives (Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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: Gastric cancer is the fifth most common malignancy and the third highest cancer-related mortality worldwide after lung and colorectal cancers. The gastric carcinogenesis is started with precancerous lesion. Prompt diagnosis and management of gastric precancerous lesion may prevent disease progression. Midkine is a growth factor associated with various cancers and proposed as a marker for detecting gastric precancerous lesion. Objective: The aim of the study is to determine the association between serum midkine level and gastric precancerous lesion in patients with gastritis. Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted at Haji Adam Malik general hospital. Subjects were obtained by consecutive sampling. Inclusion criteria were patients aged 18 years or older, diagnosed with gastritis from gastroscopy and histopathology results, and willing to cooperate in the study. Each subjects underwent interview and endoscopic examination. Serum midkine level was determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. Chi square, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and logistic regression tests were applied. Results: A total of 160 subjects were enrolled with 29.4% had gastric precancerous lesion. Serum midkine level was associated with gastric premalignant lesion. Cut off point for serum midkine level was 252 pg/mL with area under the curve of 0.816 (p<0.001). It's sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy in diagnosing gastric precancerous lesion were 74.5%, 71.7%, and 72.5%, respectively. Helicobacter pylori infection, high serum midkine level, heavy alcohol drinker, and family history of gastric cancer were risk factors for gastric precancerous lesion. Conclusion: Serum midkine level is associated with gastric premalignant lesion in patients with gastritis and has good diagnostic values.
