Synthesis in Inflammation research : official journal of the European Histamine Research Society ... [et al.], 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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

objectiveTo quantitatively summarize the association of NFKBIA gene polymorphisms with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

methodsWe surveyed studies on the association of NFKBIA gene polymorphisms with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in PubMed. Meta-analysis was performed in a fixed/random effect model.

resultsWe identified 14 studies using a PubMed search. Meta-analysis was performed for NFKBIA gene polymorphisms at positions 2758 (A/G, 5 studies), -881 (A/G, 3 studies), -826 (C/T, 3 studies), and -297 (C/T, 3 studies). We did not detect associations of NFKBIA gene polymorphisms at positions 2758, -881, -297 with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. An association of NFKBIA gene -826C/T polymorphism with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases was found (C vs. T: OR = 1.81, 95% CI = 0.97-3.36, P = 0.06; CT + TT vs. CC: OR = 2.11, 95% CI = 1.07-4.19, P = 0.03; TT vs. CC + CT: OR = 2.20, 95% CI = 0.78-6.21, P = 0.06; TT vs. CC: OR = 2.87, 95% CI = 0.78-10.62, P = 0.11; CT vs. CC: OR = 2.02, 95% CI = 1.22-3.36, P = 0.006).

conclusionThis meta-analysis demonstrates that autoimmune and inflammatory diseases are associated with NFKBIA gene -826C/T polymorphism, but not with 2758A/G, -881A/G, and -279C/T.
