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

objectivesMultiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory, autoimmune demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. Human Natural Resistance Associated Macrophage Protein 1 (NRAMP1) gene polymorphisms have been implicated in the immune mediated diseases susceptibility. This study aimed to investigate the plausible association between NRAMP1 gene and MS susceptibility.

methodsWe analyzed (GT)(n,) INT4, 3'UTR and D543N polymorphisms of NRAMP1 gene in 100 MS patients and 104 healthy subjects by using amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction and sequence analysis.

resultsNo significant association was found between (GT)(n,) INT4, 3'UTR and D543N polymorphisms and MS. There was also no correlation between NRAMP1 polymorphisms and MS clinical forms.

conclusionsOur findings suggest that NRAMP1 polymorphisms do not play a role in MS susceptibility and clinical finding of MS in Turkish patients.
