Review in Seminars in immunology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 36 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an idiopathic autoimmune neurodegenerative disease. Like many common diseases, MS has a genetic component; however, as with most complex diseases, the genetic architecture may be influenced by heterogeneity, incomplete penetrance, polygenic inheritance, and environmental factors. This clinically complex disease has provided great challenges for geneticists over the years. Although the first consistent genetic association to MS (with HLA-DR*1501) was discovered more than 30 years ago, lack of consistently replicated genetic results has plagued the scientific community. New study design methods (particularly genome-wide associations studies [GWAS]) along with genome project data and larger datasets have allowed several additional MS genes to be identified and consistently replicated. Thus, after many years of frustration, the strong genetic component associated with MS is finally beginning to be characterized.
