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

Previously, we discovered single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with Immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy in selectin genes, which were 712C>T(P238S) in L selectin, -642A>G in the promoter region of L selectin, and 1402C>T(H468Y) in E selectin. Interestingly, these SNPs were in nearly complete linkage disequilibrium, thus two haplotypes, disease-associated TGT and wild-type (Wt) CAC, were constructed. To investigate the functional significance of TGT haplotype, a stable CHO transfectant expressing a P238S-L-selectin variant (CHO-varL) and a recombinant adenovirus vector containing an H468Y-E-selectin variant (Ad-varE) were established and compared to their Wt counterparts. Under flow, CHO-varL exhibited significantly less adhesion over IL-1beta-activated HUVEC monolayers compared to CHO-wtL. Furthermore, a luciferase reporter construct, containing a promoter region of the L-selectin variant (luc-varL), exhibited significantly less transcription activity compared to Wt (luc-wtL). These results suggest that the adhesive interactions and expression level of L selectin in disease-associated haplotypes are significantly compromised, indicating a potential role of these SNPs in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases, including IgA nephropathy.
