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

Autoimmune polyendocrinopathy-candidiasis-ectodermal dystrophy (APECED) is a rare, but well-defined monogenic disorder that is caused by mutations in the autoimmune regulator (AIRE) gene on chromosome 21q22.3. Patients most often suffer from loss of endocrine function in the parathyroid and adrenal glands but may also develop Type 1 diabetes, thyroid disease or hypogonadism. The disease may therefore serve as a model for sporadic endocrine autoimmunity and help to develop new screening and prevention methods. To date at least 46 mutations of AIRE have been identified in affected individuals. Little is known about heterozygosity states but patients with the more prevalent isolated autoimmune endocrinopathies such as Type 1 diabetes, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Graves' or Addison's disease do not have any of the common mutations. This does not rule out AIRE to be affected either by so far unknown or regulatory variants. The recent characterization of AIRE knockout mice with similar immune pathological findings compared to the human setting will help to elucidate endocrine autoimmunity.
