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

Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) regulate NK cell function. KIRs and their HLA ligands are highly polymorphic in nature with substantial allelic polymorphism. At present, there is a lack of an expedient method for KIR and HLA allele typing with relevant functional information. Here, we developed a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) assay to type various allele groups of KIR2DL1 with distinct functional properties based on polymorphism at position 245. We also established a SNP assay to type different KIR ligands based on polymorphism at position 77 in HLA-C and position 83 in HLA-B and -A. Our SNP assays for KIR and KIR ligand typing are much cheaper and faster than existing high-resolution typing. Importantly, our high-throughput methods provide readouts that are informative in predicting NK cell activity in health, disease, and transplantation.
