Beyond the Usual Suspects: Hereditary Hemochromatosis and Transaminitis in Primary Care.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
An annual physical examination within a primary care setting, including evaluation of liver enzymes and abnormal serology, is incidental and often asymptomatic. Fatty liver is the most common etiology for transaminitis. Hepatobiliary imaging studies, viral hepatitis serology, evaluation of metabolic liver disease, and alcohol consumption history should be performed for transaminitis evaluation. In patients with prior history of excessive alcohol consumption, transaminitis is often assumed to be alcohol-related. It is prudent to evaluate other infectious and metabolic etiologies, which can change patient management. Iron studies, including ferritin and transferrin saturation, are performed to evaluate hereditary hemochromatosis (HH). We present the case of a 46-year-old patient who visited the clinic for a routine health checkup, during which elevated ferritin levels were detected. Subsequent diagnosis revealed hemochromatosis. The patient underwent phlebotomy, resulting in a reduction of ferritin levels.
