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

Familial clustering and genome-wide linkage scans strongly support a genetic susceptibility to familial IgA nephropathy (IgAN), but genetic factors that predispose to sporadic IgAN are unknown. A high-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) association study was conducted using a customized Illumina BeadChip in 732 white patients with biopsy-proven IgAN and 503 control subjects from Canada, France, and Finland. Approximately 93% of 1536 SNPs on the array were tag SNPs from Phase I+II of the HapMap with a minor allele frequency > or =5%, designed to capture the common variants of genes within the critical interval of IGAN1 on chromosome 6q22 and 69 biologic candidate genes for IgAN. SNPs of suggestive or significant association were identified by using logistic regression to adjust for age, gender, study site, and population stratification. Despite using a dense marker set that covered an average interval of 6.5 kb between SNPs, there was no strong and consistent association signal within the IGAN1 critical interval. Among the biologic candidate genes examined, two significant association signals were found at IL5RA and TNFRSF6B, the latter being particularly interesting because this gene encodes a decoy receptor for a TNF family ligand that causes IgAN in mice when overexpressed. Pending replication, these data suggest that variants of IL5RA and TNFRSF6B may predispose to sporadic IgAN.
