Formalin fixation and patterns of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies.
Article in Journal of clinical pathology, 1995. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
Recent publications have suggested that fixing neutrophils in formalin is a useful adjunct to the differentiation of antinuclear antibodies from perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies. In this small comparative study of 30 sera the use of an additional slide of formalin fixed neutrophils did not add any useful information and may be confusing as the results were not reproducible.
