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

backgroundHenoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN) is the most serious long-term complication of Henoch-Schönlein purpura and aberrant galactosylation of IgA1 plays a role in its development. However, the precise role of genetic factors contributing to the abnormal IgA1 galactosylation remains unknown.

methodsIn order to examine the effects of C1GALT1 gene encoding core 1 β1,3-galactosyltransferase, an important role in the β1,3 glycosylation of IgA1, on HSPN susceptibility, we conducted a case-control association genetic study in 269 HSP and 61 HSPN in China. Five tagging SNPs, SNP1(-734 C/T), SNP4(-465A/G), SNP6(-330 G/T), SNP7(-292 C/-), and SNP8(1365 G/A) in C1GALT1 were studied using single-locus and haplotype-based multilocus analysis.

resultsOur results demonstrated that 1365 G allele frequency was significantly higher in HSPN patients than in HSP patients without nephritis (0.459 vs 0.331, p = 0.0008, adjusted p' = 0.004) with an odds ratio (OR) = 1.716, 95%CI 1.151-2.560). The GG genotype of 1,365 G/A was significantly different in HSP without nephritis and HSPN (p = 0.008, adjusted p'' = 0.04). We did not observe statistically significant differences in haplotype frequencies between HSPN and HSP patients.

conclusionsIn conclusion, our study suggested that the 1365 G/A polymorphism of the C1GALT1 gene may contribute to HSPN development.
