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

We have completed a genome wide linkage scan using >5700 informative single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers (Illumina IV SNP linkage panel) in 642 Caucasian families containing affected sibling pairs with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ascertained by the North American Rheumatoid Arthritis Consortium. The results show striking new evidence of linkage at chromosomes 2q33 and 11p12 with logarithm of odds (LOD) scores of 3.52 and 3.09, respectively. In addition to a strong and broad linkage interval surrounding the major histocompatibility complex (LOD>16), regions with LOD>2.5 were observed on chromosomes 5 and 10. Additional linkage evidence (LOD scores between 1.46 and 2.35) was also observed on chromosomes 4, 7, 12, 16 and 18. This new evidence for multiple regions of genetic linkage is partly explained by the significantly increased information content of the Illumina IV SNP linkage panel (75.6%) compared with a standard microsatellite linkage panel utilized previously (mean 52.6%). Stratified analyses according to whether or not the sibling pair members showed elevated anticyclic citrullinated peptide titers indicates significant variation in evidence for linkage among strata on chromosomes 4, 5, 6 and 7. Overall, these new linkage data should reinvigorate efforts to utilize positional information to identify susceptibility genes for RA.
