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

Toll-like receptors (TLR) serve important roles in immunity against microbial pathogens, and TLR3 plays a critical role in the recognition of double-stranded RNA derived from viruses. Two specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the human TLR3 gene, A851T and C1234T, which result in amino acid substitutions, N284I and L412F, respectively, have been described to result in impaired receptor signaling and function in an in vitro model. Hence, an assay that could simultaneously detect these two functional TLR3 SNPs could facilitate studies into their role in the pathogenesis of human viral diseases and serve as a tool to screen viral disease predisposition. Therefore, we developed a real-time PCR assay based on a LightCycler format for simultaneous detection of A851T and C1234T SNPs within the TLR3 gene. This relatively low-cost PCR assay is proposed as a novel tool in the study of TLR3 and its role in viral disease.
