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

Controversial observations have been published on the association of the cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated antigen gene's variants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). After genotyping 428 patients and 230 matched controls, the prevalence of the CT60(∗)G allele was more frequent in RF- and/or anti-CCP-seropositive RApatients, compared to the healthy controls (P < .001). Regression analysis revealed that the CT60(∗)G allele is a possible predisposing factor for RA in these subgroups. No accumulation of the +49(∗)G allele was found among patients, and this variant was not found to correlate with RA. Assaying the possible genotype variations, the +49(∗)G-CT60(∗)G allelic combination was accumulated in seropositive RA-subtypes, and was associated with the risk of RA (OR = 1.73, P = .001 for the whole RA-population). Although the +49(∗)G allele did not mean a predisposition to RA alone, in combination with CT60(∗)G it, also conferred risk, suggesting that the +49A/G variant is associated with the risk of RA only in certain haplotypes.
