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

TIM-3 is a transmembrane protein preferentially expressed on differentiated Th1 cells, which play a role in Th1-mediated diseases including type 1 diabetes. We investigated the role of the rs10515746 (A/C), rs1036199 (A/C), and rs10053538 (A/C) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the TIM-3 gene in 186 German type 1 diabetes families (558 individuals) and its interaction with human leukocyte antigen (HLA) high-risk haplotypes DQ2(DQA*0501-DQB*0201)-DQ8 (DQA*0301-DQB*0302). Alleles A, C, and A of the rs10515746 (A/C), rs1036199 (A/C), and rs10053538 (A/C) SNPs were found in a frequency of 20.4%, 19.0%, and 4.2%, respectively. Transmission analysis of these polymorphisms did not show any significant difference. Although in patients with HLA DQx/x (neither HLA DQ2 nor DQ8) an undertransmission of allele A (14.3% vs. 85.7%) of the rs10053538 (A/C) SNP and an overtransmission of allele A (66.7% vs. 33.3%) of the rs10515746 (A/C) SNP was observed, these associations did not remain statistically significant after correction for multiple comparisons. Although we found no association of TIM-3 with type 1 diabetes in the German population, we cannot discard a possible association in a larger size.
