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

Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) is a disorder of haem biosynthesis characterized by a reduction in ferrochelatase and subsequent accumulation of protoporphyrin IX. Haematological aberrations in EPP have been described, though they remain poorly understood. We present a detailed analysis of haematological parameters in EPP, drawing upon data from four large cohorts in the United States and Europe. We show an association between protoporphyrin levels and both platelet count and spleen size, and in a case-control analysis, we describe significant differences between haematological indices in EPP patients versus controls.
