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

backgroundThe incidence and prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been increasing worldwide recently. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a major ocular complication of diabetes mellitus, and it is the leading cause of blindness and visual impairment. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT 1) is a NAD+-dependent deacetylase and is involved in stress responses such as hypoxic and genotoxic stress, inflammation and heat shock. Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) is an important inflammatory mediator that is involved in the pathogenesis of T2DM. The purpose of our study was to investigate the relationship between the MATERIALS AND

methodsWe analyzed 1554 Slovenian (Caucasian) patients with T2DM of at least 10 years' duration, stratifying them into two groups: 577 patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR) and 977 patients without DR. Genotyping of SIRT1 rs7069102 and TNF-α rs1800629 polymorphisms was performed using the StepOne real-time PCR System with TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assays. RESULTS AND
