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

introductionIgE-dependent activation of mast cells and basophils through the high-affinity IgE receptor (Fc(epsilon)R1) is involved in the pathogenesis of allergen-induced immune responsiveness in atopic disease including bronchial asthma. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe genotyped 650 children for allelic determinants at two polymorphic sites, -109T/C and E237G, in the Fc(epsilon)R1beta gene by SNP-IT assays using the SNP stream 25K system.

resultsDistributions of the genotype and allele frequencies of Fc(epsilon)R1beta -109T/C and E237G polymorphisms were significantly associated with atopy (P < 0.05) and elevated serum IgE levels. However, differences in the E237G polymorphism did not reach statistical significance after adjustment for multiple comparisons. The genotypes TC or CC at -109T/C were associated with decreased forced expiratory flow(25-75%) in children with asthma (P < 0.05), but this did not reach statistical significance after correction for multiple comparisons. In addition, haplotype 1 (T-A) was associated with atopy susceptibility (P = 0.0069). Analysis of genotype distributions of haplotypes demonstrated a significantly lower PC(20) for homozygous -/- diploids compared with homozygous Ht1/Ht1 (P = 0.0261).

conclusionPolymorphisms in the Fc(epsilon)R1beta gene confer susceptibility to atopy in Korean children and may have a disease-modifying effect on airways of asthmatic patients.
