No relationship of -627 interleukin-10 promoter polymorphism in Chinese patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

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
The aim of this study was to examine whether -627 interleukin-10 (IL-10) promoter polymorphism is a marker of susceptibility to or severity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Chinese patients in Taiwan. The study included 198 Chinese patients with RA. One hundred unrelated healthy individuals living in central Taiwan served as the control subjects. The relationship between IL-10 gene polymorphism and clinical manifestations of RA was evaluated. For the genotype, allelic frequency, and carriage rate of IL-10 polymorphism, there were no statistically significant differences found between patients and controls. Furthermore, we did not detect any association of IL-10 genotype with rheumatoid factor (RF), extra-articular involvement, or bone erosion in the RA patients. The lack of association of -627 IL-10 gene polymorphism with RA and the clinical findings in our study implies that the IL-10 gene polymorphism cannot serve as a candidate gene marker for screening RA patients.
