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

Introduction: This study aimed to define and update the prevalence of β-pathogenic thalassemia variants in Jordan. Methods: A total of 158 patients with suspected β-thalassemia minor were examined using CBC and Hb-electrophoresis, and polymerase chain reaction with hybridization to identify the type of pathogenic variants. Results: Five common and seven rare β-thalassemia pathogenic variants were identified in this study, in addition to three variants that had not been previously reported: -101 [C>T], IVS 1.130 [G>C], and codon 44 [-C]. Conclusions: The results provide a new update on the existing Jordanian β-thalassemia variant database that will aid the enhancement of diagnostic and treatment protocols for patients.
