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

Haemoglobinopathies remain among the most common monogenic disorders worldwide, with sickle cell disease (SCD) and various forms of thalassemia posing significant challenges to public health systems, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. This study presents a ten-year retrospective analysis of haemoglobin phenotype surveillance data, encompassing multiple regions and demographic strata. This retrospective work was conducted at Bowen University Hospital, Iwo, Osun State, southwestern Nigeria between January 2015 and December 2024. Data were extracted and analyzed using machine learning from 8890 medical records of undergraduate annual phenotype screening spanning ten years (2015-2024). HbAA was the most common genotype at 75.11% (n = 6,677). SCD genotypes (HbSS and HbSC) showed a non-significant downward trend over the ten-year period (slope = - 0.03 percentage points/year; R
