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

backgroundPD-1, encoded by PDCD1, is highly expressed on virus-specific T cells and plays critical roles in modulating anti-virus immune responses in chronic viral infection. It is unknown, however, whether polymorphisms of the PDCD1 are associated with viral clearance during chronic viral infections. METHODOLOGY AND PRINCIPAL

findingsHere, we used the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method to genotype two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of PDCD1 in 502 patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and 359 healthy controls to determine the association between PDCD1 genotypes and serum viral load as well as the risk of chronic infection. Our results showed that although neither the P7209(C/T) SNP site nor the P8737(A/G) site was associated with the risk of chronic HBV infection, the P7209 (T) allele in intron 4 is significantly associated with lower viral burden in the blood. Using a luciferase reporter assay, we demonstrated that the P7209 (T) allele creates a negative cis-element for gene transcription. CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE: Our data provide the first evidence that PDCD1 polymorphisms is a genetic factor in pathogenesis of chronic viral infection and reveal the functional significance of the P7209 SNP of the PDCD1.
