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

Previous studies initiated defining the role of host genetics in influencing the outcome of exposure to ovine progressive pneumonia virus. However, specific genes influencing host control of virus replication and disease progression have not been identified. This study, using 383 ewes of the Columbia, Polypay, and Rambouillet breeds, tested the hypothesis that host control of OPPV as measured by provirus levels in the peripheral blood associates with certain breeds and MHC class II Ovis aries (Ovar)-DRB1 expressed alleles. Rambouillet ewes were less likely to have measurable provirus levels as compared to Columbia ewes at ages 5 and 6 (P value < 0.02), and they exhibited lower provirus levels when compared to both Columbia and Polypay ewes of the same ages (P value < 0.05). The presence of DRB1*0403- or DRB1*07012-expressed alleles were significantly associated (P value = 0.019 and 0.0002, respectively) with lower OPP provirus levels but only were only found in 11% of the ewe flock. Analysis of each segregating amino acid in the beta1 domain of DR beta-chain revealed that amino acids Y31, T32, N37, T51, Q60, or N74 significantly associated (P value range = 0.0003-0.018) with lower OPP provirus levels, whereas amino acids H32, A38, or I67 associated (P value range = 0.013-0.043) with higher OPP provirus levels. These results suggest that Ovar-DRB1 contributes as one host genetic factor that controls OPP provirus levels, but does not fully account for the breed-specific OPP proviral differences.
