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

The Fc receptor-like 3 (FCRL3) -169 C/T polymorphism has been reported to be associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but with inconsistent results. The aim of this study was to explore whether the FCRL3 -169 C/T polymorphism confers susceptibility to RA and SLE. The authors conducted a random effect meta-analysis on the associations between the C/C (recessive effect) or C/C + C/T (dominant effect) genotype or the allele C of the FCRL3 -169 polymorphisms and RA or SLE in different populations. In total, 15 separate comparisons, 12 for RA and 3 for SLE, drawn from nine European and six Asian population samples were included in this meta-analysis. No association between RA and the FCRL3 C allele was found for all study subjects (OR = 1.064, 95% CI = 0.987-1.146, p = 0.107). However, stratification by ethnicity indicated that the FCRL3 C allele was significantly associated with RA in Asians (OR = 1.203, 95% CI = 1.097-31.319, p < 0.001). Conversely, no association was detected for this allele and RA in Europeans (OR = 0.997, 95% CI = 0.931-1.068, p = 0.933). The ORs for the C/C + C/T and C/C genotypes in these ethnic groups showed the same trends as the FCRL3 C allele. An association between SLE and the FCRL3 -169 A allele was found in all study subjects (OR = 1.115, 95% CI = 1.003-1.240, p = 0.043), but meta-analysis excluding studies with controls not in HWE did not show the association. This meta-analysis suggests that the FCRL3 -169 C/T polymorphism is a significant risk factor for RA in Asians, but not in Europeans.
