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

Human IgG receptors (FcgammaR) display considerable heterogeneity, and are crucial immune response modulating molecules. FcgammaRIIA, FcgammaRIIIA, and FcgammaRIIIB display functional biallelic polymorphisms. FcgammaR polymorphisms have been found associated with susceptibility to infectious and autoimmune diseases. Linked transmission of FcgammaR alleles was studied by determining the distribution of FcgammaRIIA-FcgammaRIIIA-FcgammaRIIIB genotype combinations in 514 Dutch Caucasian, and 149 Japanese blood donors. The structure of the FcgammaR locus was studied by radiation hybrid mapping of FcgammaRIA, FcgammaRIIA, FcgammaRIIB, FcgammaRIIIA, FcgammaRIIIB, and adjacent genes from the pentraxin family. In addition, crossing-over frequencies within the FcgammaR locus were determined in 63 Dutch Caucasian families, encompassing 183 individuals. FcgammaRII and FcgammaRIII subclasses were mapped in close proximity (0.47-3.14 cR). Accordingly, crossing-over frequencies within the FcgammaRII-III locus in Dutch families were low. Analysis of combined FcgammaR genotypes strongly suggested non-random distribution of FcgammaRIIA-FcgammaRIIIA-, and FcgammaRIIIA-FcgammaRIIIB genotypes in Dutch donors (P<0.001 and P<0.00001, respectively), and of FcgammaRIIA-FcgammaRIIIb genotypes in Japanese blood donors (P<0.02). Frequencies of FcgammaRII-FcgammaRIII haplotypes differed significantly between Dutch and Japanese (P<0.00001). This study provides important information for the interpretation of studies reporting associations of FcgammaR alleles with disease, and underscores the apparent differences in FcgammaR heterogeneity between ethnic groups.
