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
backgroundSingle Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) in candidate autophagy gene BECN1 could influence its functions thereby autophagy process. BECN1 noncoding SNPs were found to be significantly associated with neurodegenerative disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study aimed to develop a simultaneous genotyping technique for two BECN1 SNPs (rs10512488 and rs11552192).
methodsA mutagenic primer-based approach was used to introduce a NdeI restriction site to genotype rs10512488 by Artificial-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (A-RFLP) along with rs11552192 by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)-RFLP. Multiplexing PCR and restriction digestion reactions were set up for simultaneous genotyping of both SNPs in 100 healthy individuals. Genotypic and allele frequencies were manually calculated, and the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium was assessed using the chi-square test.
resultsWe successfully developed PCR and RFLP conditions for the amplification and restriction digestion of both SNPs within the same tube for genotyping. The results of genotyping by newly developed multiplexing PCR-RFLP technique were concordant with the genotypes obtained by Sanger sequencing of samples. Allelic frequencies of rs10512488 obtained were 0.15 (A) and 0.85 (G), whereas allelic frequencies of rs11552192 were 0.16 (T) and 0.84 (A).
conclusionThe newly developed technique is rapid, cost-effective and time-saving for large-scale applications compared to sequencing methods and would play an important role in low-income settings. For the first time, allelic frequencies of rs10512488 and rs11552192 were reported among the North Indian population.
