A haplotype in the CCR5 gene promoter was associated with the susceptibility to HIV-1 infection in a northern Chinese population.

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
It has been reported that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter of the CCR5 gene are associated with the risk for HIV-1 infection and AIDS progression. Using resequencing, we performed a systematic survey of 78 HIV-1 seropositive individuals and 70 population-matched healthy control individuals from northern China to investigate SNPs of the CCR5 gene promoter and evaluated their effects on HIV-1 infection and the progression of AIDS. Linkage disequilibrium (LD) plots and haplotypes were generated using Haploview software. The association analyses were statistically compared using the Chi-square test with SPSS13.0 software for Windows. Seven SNPs (58755A>G, 58791C>T, 58934G>T, 59029A>G, 59353C>T, 59402A>G and 59653C>T) in the region of the CCR5 gene promoter were evaluated in this study. Among the seven SNPs, the minor allele frequencies of 58755G and 58791T were less than 2%. The differences in frequencies of the other five SNPs were not significant between case and control cohorts (P>0.05). In the case cohort, the association between these SNPs and clinical features (CD4+ T-lymphocyte counts and clinical categories) was not significant (P>0.05); however, there was a significant association between the haplotype GGTAC and susceptibility to HIV-1 infection (P<0.05), which is not consistent with other reports studied in different populations. The results suggest that the haplotype GGTAC may have a role in the process of HIV-1 infection in the northern Chinese population.
