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

Genetic factors are thought to be crucial in the pathogenesis of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Recent studies have reported that ERAP1, TGBβ1 and TLRs genes are likely to have association with AS in different populations. We carried out this study to determine whether single-nucleotide polymorphisms covering the three genes are associated with AS in a Chinese Han population. Genomic DNA was isolated from the peripheral blood of 328 patients with AS and 627 healthy blood donors from Jinan region as a case-control study. The diagnosis of AS was made according to the modified New York criteria. The ERAP1 rs27044, TGBβ1 rs1800470 and TLR9 rs55704465 were genotyped by a polymerase chain reaction--restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Strong association with AS was observed for marker rs27044, but no significant differences were observed between AS patients and controls in the frequencies of the carriership of the alleles rs55704465 and rs1800470. Our data thus indicate that ERAP1 likely constitutes one of AS-associated loci of susceptibility after HLA in Chinese Han population. On the contrary, TGFB1 and TLR9 variations show no association with the susceptibility of AS.
