1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Beclin-1 has a significant role in autophagy process (Macro-autophagy). It functions through interaction with autophagy-related genes (Atgs) and other protein molecules during the process of autophagy.Here we assessed the level of serum autophagy related protein Beclin-1 in Egyptian adult beta thalassemia patients and studied its relation to ineffective erythropoiesis, transfusion requirements, iron overload.This case control study included 50 Egyptian adult beta thalassemia patients aged 18 years or more including transfusion dependent and non-transfusion dependent patients, and 25 healthy controls. The patients were selected from the Hematology Department of Ain Shams University Hospitals, Cairo, Egypt.The median (IQR) Beclin-1 level was higher in patients group in comparison to control group with highly significant statistical difference {15ng/ml (13-22) Vs 2.5ng/ml (2-3), p value < 0.001}. We found a statistically significant positive correlation between Beclin-1 level and serum ferritin (
