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

Genetic susceptibility plays a major role in the etiology of Graves' disease (GD). A recent study revealed that the A946T polymorphism (rs1990760) in interferon induced helicase (IFIH1) gene was a susceptible locus for GD. A case-control study in a Chinese population was undertaken, with 261 GD patients and 206 healthy subjects, to analyze the association of A946T polymorphism in IFIH1 gene with GD. In addition, the distribution of IFIH1 genotypes was investigated in subgroups according to the onset age and the Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO). No significant differences in the allele and genotype frequencies for A946T polymorphism were found between GD patients and healthy controls (chi2 = 2.834, P = 0.242; chi2 = 1.127, P = 0.288). The genotype-phenotype correlation was not identified either. Therefore we were unable to find the association of A946T polymorphism of the IFIH1 gene with the development of GD in a Chinese population.
