Multidrug resistance protein 3 R652G may reduce susceptibility to idiopathic infant cholestasis.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
aimTo evaluate the role of genetic factors in the pathogenesis of idiopathic infant cholestasis.
methodsWe performed a case-control study, including 78 infants with idiopathic infant cholestasis and 113 healthy infants as controls. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral venous blood leukocytes using phenol chloroform methodology. Polymerase chain reaction was used to amplify the multidrug resistance protein 3 (MDR3) R652G fragment, and products were sequenced using the ABI 3100 Sequencer.
resultsThe R652G single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was significantly more frequent in healthy infants (allele frequency 8.0%) than in patients (allele frequency 2.60%) (P < 0.05), odds ratio, 0.29; 95% confidence interval, 0.12-0.84. The conjugated bilirubin in patients with the AG genotype was significantly lower than in those with the AA genotype (44.70 +/- 6.15 micromol/L vs 95.52 +/- 5.93 micromol/L, P < 0.05).
conclusionMDR3 R652G is negatively correlated with idiopathic infant cholestasis. Children with the R652G SNP in Guangxi of China may have reduced susceptibility to infant intrahepatic cholestasis.
