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

Although the etiology of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) remains to be fully elucidated, it is now apparent that multiple genetic and environmental factors are at play. Over the past decade, several studies have helped uncover genetic associations and susceptibility loci in human and murine lupus. In particular, recent genome-wide association studies have uncovered a large number of associated genes in human SLE. Given this plethora of candidate genes, the next challenge for lupus biologists is to fathom how these different genes operate to engender lupus. In this context, recent genetic studies in mouse models of lupus have been particularly informative. The purpose of this review is to overview three key genetically determined checkpoints in lupus development that have emerged from studies of NZM2410-derived congenic strains bearing individual lupus susceptibility loci. These three events include a breach in central tolerance in the adaptive arm of the immune system, peripheral amplification of the autoimmune response by the innate immune system and local processes in the target organ that facilitate end-organ disease. Collectively, murine congenic dissection studies provide a framework for understanding and analyzing the steady stream of gene candidates that are currently emerging from human lupus studies.
