The prevalence of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) DR/DQ/DP alleles in Kuwaiti children with oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis.
Article in Rheumatology international, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We have determined the prevalence of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR, DQ and DP alleles in Kuwaiti children with oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (OA-JIA) and healthy controls using the PCR-SSP (sequence specific primers) method. The analysis took into account the presence of antinuclear antibodies and chronic anterior uveitis. DRB1*03 (RR 2.20, P<0.001), DRB1*08 (RR 5.280, P<0.026), DQA1*0501 (RR 1.930, P<0.001), DQB1*0304 (RR 7.920, P<0.002), DQB1*0501 (RR 3.080, P<0.007) and DPB1*0101 (RR 8.8, P<0.001) were the main HLA alleles associated with OA-JIA in Kuwaiti Arabs in this study. DRB1*03 was detected in 71% of children with positive ANA, and in 50% of children with anterior uveitis. DQA1 alleles *0501, *0103 and *0105 (P<0.001; 0.029 and 0.024 respectively) were found to be associated with OA-JIA. In contrast, DQA1*0301 and DQA1*0302 alleles appear to be protective in Kuwaiti children (RR 0.153, P<0.001 and RR 0.278, P<0.016 respectively). The DQB1 alleles *0304 and *0501 were associated with OA-JIA (P<0.002 and P<0.007 respectively). In the case of DPB1, only one allele (*0101) was associated with OA-JIA (P<0.001). Most Kuwaiti Arab patients with OA-JIA who carried a DQ or DP susceptibility allele also had an accompanying DRB1*03 or *8 allele.
