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 investigated the allele and genotype frequencies of two common CRTH2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) [G1544C and A1651G (rs 545659)] in the 3'-untranslated region and the relationship between these SNPs and serum IL-13 levels in Chinese children patients with asthma. For G1544C and A1651G SNPs, there were significant differences in allele and genotype frequencies between asthma patients and controls. Haplotype analysis yielded additional evidence of linkage disequilibrium for the 1544G-1651G haplotype (P < 0.01). Moreover, serum IL-13 levels were significantly different among genotypes in G1544C, A1651G SNPs. These results suggest that SNPs of G1544C and A1651G might be act as susceptibility genetic factors of asthma.
