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

This study investigated late renal, liver, endocrine, and cardiac outcomes in 52 Kurdish children aged 7-18 years who underwent bone marrow transplantation (BMT) for β-thalassemia major (β-TM). Boys had higher levels of hemoglobin and alkaline phosphatase than girls. Conversely, girls exhibited higher levels of SGPT, ferritin, T4, and eGFR. In all patients, BUN (71.15%), ALP (100%), PT (96.15%), TSB (34.62%), and serum ferritin (48.08%) were elevated, while Hb (57.69%) and serum creatinine (42.31%) were lower than normal. At ages 1-5, 6-10, and 11-15 years, patients had significantly lower serum ferritin (1053.0, 212.0, and 105.05; p = 0.0004) and SGOT (30.0, 22.0, and 26.50; p = 0.0231) levels. Echocardiography showed normal heart function in 47 patients (90.39%), with minor abnormalities observed in only 9.61%. The mean eGFR was 89.70 (SD: 22.93), with girls showing a significantly higher average (98.83) than boys (72.70; p < 0.0001). Kidney function was most often mildly decreased (55.77%), followed by normal/increased (40.39%), and mild-to-moderately decreased (3.85%). Girls were more likely to have normal/ increased kidney function (61.54%), while boys predominantly had mildly decreased kidney function (76.92%) with no significant difference between ages in all patients. Most of the children with β-TM had mildly decreased kidney function and higher liver function test values.
