IFN gamma gene polymorphism may contribute to the susceptibility to CLL.

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.
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 pathogenesis of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) has been linked with the production and activity of certain growth factors. However a significant proportion of CLL patients display immune abnormalities suggestive of aberrant cytokine secretion and/or response. In contrast to B lymphocytes, T cells of B-CLL patients characterise with the increased production of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and this cytokine has been indicated to prevent malignant cells from entering apoptosis including the slowly expanding population of CD5+ B cells that characterizes chronic lymphocytic leukemia. The aim of the present study was to assess whether functionally relevant interferon-gamma gene (IFNG) polymorphism (+847 A/T) contributes to the pathogenesis of B-CLL. In total 110 individuals was investigates, including 61 CLL patients and 50 healthy individuals. The presence of the IFNG AA genotype was found to be associated with susceptibility to CLL (23/61 vs. 7/50, p < 0.005, for patients and controls, respectively). This results suggest that individuals rather prone to the lower level of IFN-gamma production (associated with the presence of the A allele) appear to be more susceptible to this malignant disease.
