FcgammaRIIB gene polymorphisms in Japanese periodontitis patients.
Article in Genes and immunity, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Human type II low-affinity receptor for immunoglobulin G (FcgammaRII) constitutes a clustered gene family consisting of FcgammaRIIA, IIB and IIC genes. FcgammaRIIB is unique in its ability to transmit inhibitory signals in B cells via immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM). B-cell activation and subsequent elevated production of IgG are the immunopathological features of inflammatory disease such as periodontitis. To determine whether an association with periodontitis susceptibility exists, genetic polymorphisms of FcgammaRIIB were examined in Japanese patients with aggressive periodontitis (AGP) and chronic periodontitis (CP), and in the race-matched healthy controls (HCs). A significant difference was observed in the distribution of FcgammaRIIB-232I/T allele (exon 5) between the AGP and HC groups, with enrichment of the 232T in the AGP group (P=0.006). In addition, the FcgammaRIIB-nt 646-184A/G allele (intron 4) distribution was significantly different between the CP and HC groups, with enrichment of the nt 646-184A in the CP group (P=0.011). These results document the association of FcgammaRIIB gene polymorphisms with susceptibility to periodontitis in the Japanese.
