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
backgroundCarotid intima-media thickness (IMT) is a measure of atherosclerosis and a predictor of vascular diseases. Traditional vascular risk factors and genetic variants do not completely explain the variation in carotid IMT. We sought to identify epigenetic factors that may contribute to the remaining carotid IMT variability. METHODS AND
resultsAn epigenome-wide association study was performed in 61 Dominican families with 769 individuals. A cytosine nucleotide that precedes a guanine nucleotide methylation in blood-derived DNA was measured using the Human MethylationEPIC BeadChip. Linear mixed model analyses were performed regressing bifurcation carotid IMT (bIMT) on beta values for cytosine nucleotide that precedes a guanine nucleotide sites, adjusting for covariates, followed by differentially methylated region (DMR) analysis. One-sample Mendelian randomization analysis was conducted to investigate causal associations between DMRs and bIMT. Twenty-five DMRs were associated with bIMT (Sidak
conclusionsOur study and previous expression quantitative trait locus studies provide converging evidence that reduced
