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
Diabetes Mellitus type II, earlier considered as an endocrinological disorder is now more regarded as an inflammatory disorder along with lipid aberrations. It demands for regular monitoring, healthy dietary habits and lifestyle modification. This study was focused on gene expression of ATP binding cassette protein 1 (ABCA1) in diabetic dyslipidemia patients in comparison with control groups of only diabetics and healthy individuals. Blood samples and data were collected from recruited 390 patients who were further divided into three groups (130 each). Glycemic index and lipid profile was assessed. Delta Delta Ct method was used that revealed downregulation of the studied gene more in diabetic dyslipidemia patients as compared to only diabetics and healthy controls. The Ct values of ABCA1 were associated with glycemic index and lipid profile using Pearson's correlation. A negative correlation with fasting blood sugar and a positive correlation with HbA1cwas observed in only diabetics group. While in diabetic dyslipidemia and normal healthy controls, a negative correlation was found with both. As far as the lipid profile is concerned a positive correlation was observed among only diabetics with whole lipid profile. In diabetics with dyslipidemia, a negative correlation with all parameters except the TAGs was observed. A positive correlation with all except HDL was observed in healthy controls. The Ct values and fold change were compared among diseased and healthy individuals by applying independent t test. The cycle threshold in only diabetics was p = 0.000018 and in diabetic dyslipdemia individuals was p = 0.00251 while fold change in only diabetics (p = 0.000230) and in diabetics with dyslipidemia (p = 0.001137) was observed to be as statistically significant.
