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

Graves' disease (GD) is a common autoimmune disorder with a genetic predisposition. The cytokine interleukin-10 (IL-10) has a central role in mediating inflammation, which may affect the outcome of the patients with GD. To elucidate the impact of IL-10 gene polymorphisms, we performed a two-stage case-control association study of five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the IL-10 gene as well as a meta-analysis of two SNP's rs1800896 and rs1800872 covering three previous studies from Iran, Taiwan, and the United Kingdom. The five SNPs were genotyped by SNPstream Genotyping and Taqman PCR. There was a significant increase of G allele of rs1800896 in the two cohorts (P (allele) = 2.6 × 10(-4) and 0.0082 for cohort Shanghai and Xiamen, respectively) compared with the controls. The meta-analysis showed the risk-increasing effects for the G allele of rs1800896 in GD (OR = 1.88; P < 0.00001). The allele and haplotype analysis results suggested that the polymorphisms of IL-10 were associated with GD susceptibility in the Chinese population.
