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

It has been determined that the family of T-cell immunoglobulin domain and mucin domain (TIM) proteins is expressed on T cells. A member of the TIM family, TIM-1, is considered to be a membrane protein associated with the development of Th2-biased immune responses and selectively expressed on Th2 cells. We previously showed that the exon 4 variations of Tim-1 are associated with susceptibility to allergic diseases, as well as autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In this study, we assessed the association between genotype and allele frequencies of the Tim-1 gene promoter region, in both RA patients and the controls without RA, using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and single-base extension methods. We further investigated the relationships among the genotypes of each polymorphism and C-reactive protein or rheumatoid factor levels in RA patients. The genotype and allele frequencies of the -1637A>G polymorphism in RA patients are significantly different from those in the non-RA controls (P=0.0004 and P=0.001, respectively). Our results strongly suggest that polymorphism in the Tim-1 promoter region might be associated with susceptibility to RA.
